What is the status of available GPL source code for the avision-type<br>
systems? We expect to base our voting system on this code and it<br>
simply has to (1) be available under GPL and (2) work. Is the Avision.c<br>
code with copyright essential to a SANE avision solution?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Ren? Rebe isn't the sole copyright holder of avision.c,
and he's been making modifications that he hasn't
been putting into SANE. The other copyright holders are:
Meino Christian Cramer
Jose Paulo Moitinho de Almeida
Other contributors (who contributed based on the GPL provisions):
Gunter Wagner
Martin Jel?nek
Marcin Siennicki
Frank Zago
Avision INC
Franz Bakan
Falk Rohsiepe
I've asked him to release the source code to avision.c, and
I'm waiting to see it. I want to see how he got the Xerox
DocuMate 150 working in avision.c. I don't have one, and
one of my customers wants to use it with VueScan.
Regards,
Ed Hamrick
