We should probably sync up, then. Work got in the way, but I have been<br>
|
|||
|
|
working on a thoroughly revised PNM backend that serves as (a) a skeleton<br>
|
|||
|
|
backend for fledgling backen writers and (b) a thorough exerciser of<br>
|
|||
|
|
frontends in the style you mention.<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
I started rewriting it when I contacted Andreas Beck about the bugs in the<br>
|
|||
|
|
1.00 version. I was (am) writing a Perl module SANE frontend, and needed<br>
|
|||
|
|
soemthing more robust than my UMAX scanner to exercise the frontend.<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
It would make sense for use to put our brains together and share what<br>
|
|||
|
|
progress we've made... I'm sending this to the list because there may be<br>
|
|||
|
|
others, as well, who've made changes to the PNM backend or others that are<br>
|
|||
|
|
relevant to this thread.<br>
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
(BTW: re the "sidetracked by work" issue -- not a problem after May 1st. <br>
|
|||
|
|
I've resigned my current position, and my new position, by design, gives<br>
|
|||
|
|
me much more "sanctioned" time to work on SANE and other Open Source<br>
|
|||
|
|
projects).<br>
