Hello,

As part a Google Summer of Code, i wrote another SANE frontend. The
design of the frontend looks similar to libkscan. The purpose of the
project is to provide libraries to build scan UI.

So i wrote libgnomescan which is the frontend to SANE ; libgnomescanui
that provide widget to scan. The end user apps & plugins bundle is
called "flegita". It currently include flegita (the standalone app) and
flegita-gimp, a gimp plugin. A few features are implemented today. The
project is far from ready for distribution in Gnome releases.


See http://home.gna.org/gnomescan/index for further information and
links.

The UI is quite simple and incomplete as of now. However, i work a lot
in the past week to make SANE call reliable. Before continuing
development of end user feature (such as preview zoom, fixed area, mass
acquisition, etc.), i want to make use of HAL and DBus to get device
list.

Thanks.

Étienne.
