[sane-devel] Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB 1200 Pro

[Kevin McDonagh]

Indeed it is not an easy undertaking and a new (cheaper) A3 scanner could
be purchased for under <£100 so it's unlikely to warrant a massive move
towards crowd funding although it was a good plan.
I don't know of any sites to help crowdsource OSS, if this kind of thing
were to be put on kickstarter I suspect the time would run out before
achieving funding.
