Hi,

sane-backends-1.0.6 and sane-frontends-1.0.6 have been just released.
See http://www.mostang.com/sane/ for details. Here is the NEWS file:

* New backends: gphoto2 (backend for gphoto2 supported cameras), mustek_usb
  (for Mustek USB scanners 600CU, 1200CU(+), 1200UB).
* Updated backends: dc240 (v 0.0), epson (v 0.2.12), hp (0.95), 
  m3096g (v 1.11), microtek2 (v 0.95), mustek (v1.0-113), net (v 1.0.5),
  pie (1.0-7), pnm (1.0-2), snapscan (v 1.4.0), umax (1.0-31), umax_pp (1).
* Added generic support for USB devices.
* Added USB support to sane-find-scanner.
* Code and documentation updates for HP UX compatibility.
* Documentation updates.
* Bugfixes.

The mirrors can take some time to sync. I have also uploaded the files
to tsx-11 and sunsite archives. I hope they accept the uploads this
time.

The release is one day earlier than planned, because I probably won't
have enough time on Monday and Tuesday.

The CVS tree is open for changes again, the code freeze is over.

The next feature freeze is planned for about the first week of
January, 2002.

Bye,
  Henning
