Adam,<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Although I appreciate your continued efforts, I wish to make it clear<br>
|
||
that I have already posted to the SANE list, and David has already put<br>
|
||
me on the project list for the development of the SANE backend for the<br>
|
||
Plustek driver. Despite what I am sure are you best intentions,<br>
|
||
continuing to try and coordinate a project (which you youself posted to<br>
|
||
several people) that you have no time for is not only counterproductive,<br>
|
||
it is frustrating. <br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I have been under the assumption that you do not have the time to work<br>
|
||
on this project and have dedicated my time to working through the<br>
|
||
current source and learning the internals of the SANE interface to<br>
|
||
create the prototype of the backend. Any help would be appreciated of<br>
|
||
course, but what you have done is in effect, pulled and "end run" around<br>
|
||
me which defeats the whole purpose of the project.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I would appreciate if you:<br>
|
||
1) Attempt to coordinate with me before asking for help with the driver<br>
|
||
of other people.<br>
|
||
2) Notify me of any progress you have with the driver to date.<br>
|
||
3) Cease filling my inbox with irrelevant messages.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
At this time, it is my understanding that Plustek has deemed that I am<br>
|
||
"in charge" of the linux driver for their scanner. This project will<br>
|
||
certianly go a lot smoother if we work together instead of these petty<br>
|
||
little ego wars. <br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I am sorry if this has offended, or seemed abrupt. However, it strikes<br>
|
||
me as rude that despite my best efforts and good faith (even going so<br>
|
||
far as to ask you if you wanted to take the project) you continue to<br>
|
||
pull these stunts. <br>
