[sane-devel] Which new backends should go into SANE 1.0.7?

[Henning Meier-Geinitz]

Hi,

The current TODO list mentions the following backends for inclusion
into SANE:

    - primax http://primax.sourceforge.net/
    - hp4200 http://hp4200-backend.sourceforge.net/
    - v4l2 http://video.inodes.org/sane-v4l2/
    - Relisys Scorpio Super 3 SCSI II
      Mark Plowman <mplowman at wxs.nl>
    - Linux Handscanner Ioctl Interface scanner by Harald
      Bauer <bauer-h at web.de>
    - viceo (Visioneer OneTouch 8600)
      http://www.abaforum.es/martim/bird/otlinux.htm
    - Genius Vivid Pro USB, Colorado USB 19200, Visioneer OneTouch 7600 
      IBM IdeaScan 2000 USB 
      http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/stevenel/scanner/
    - Fujitsu M3091DCd support
      Frederik Ramm <frederik at remote.org>
      http://www.remote.org/frederik/projects/software/sane/
    - Canon FB620S flatbed scanner and FS2710 film scanner
      ftp://stthd0.pc.uni-koeln.de/pub/canon-1.08.tar.gz
      Ulrich Deiters <ukd at xenon.pc.Uni-Koeln.DE>
    - UMAX Astra 1220U  backend
      http://umax1220u-sane.sourceforge.net/

What's the status of these backends? Will any of them go into SANE
1.0.7?  In this case, the inclusion process should be finished by 
about New Year's Eve.

Can any backend removed from this list because it will never go into
the SANE distribution (for whatever reason)?

Bye,
  Henning
