There does seem to be a welcome flurry of activity relating to the snapscan
<BR>
backend. It seems that the best method of bringing the software up to date
<BR>
may be to assemble a core group of people with a variety of scanners and
<BR>
have them test changes as proposed. I have the Agfa Snapscan 1212u_2
<BR>
available for testing and would be willing to download CVS versions as
<BR>
required
<BR>
to verify operation on this scanner. I am not comfortable enough with the
<BR>
backend
<BR>
to understand the ramifications of all the changes, but have enough
<BR>
debugging skills
<BR>
to track down some problems. Steve, as you wrote some of the latest changes,
<BR>
I would suggest you may be a good person to submit patches to the CVS or the
<BR>
group of testers and have them report the results.
<BR>
There seems to be quite a range of scanners that use the snapscan backend...
<BR>
what
<BR>
would be the best way to assemble a group of testers? additions to the
<BR>
readme in
<BR>
the CVS? this news group? Tagging related info with [snapscan] on this group
<BR>
is definitely helpful in tracking related messages.

<EM>&gt; &gt; I do realize that it's difficult to maintain a backend when you don't
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; have a documentation and/or different scanners (indeed, i had to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; compare each scsi command between the win driver and sane's one to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; find my little bug, so it would not have been possible for someone
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; without this model). And I really appreciate what you and others
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; before have done to make snapscan backend work with each model.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I will try to investigate the EAGAIN bug by my side and make useful
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; bug reports ;)
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; If you have any suggestion or want to try something, don't hesitate to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; contact me; I have quite a good knowledge of the code with all I tried
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; to make it work.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; We seem to have received a few useful fixes for the SnapScan backend on
</EM><BR>
this
<BR>
<EM>&gt; list recently. Are they making it in to CVS? Is someone needed to
</EM><BR>
coordinate
<BR>
<EM>&gt; these fixes into a coherent, released whole? If certainly don't mind doing
</EM><BR>
that
<BR>
<EM>&gt; much, even if I am reluctant to become maintainer of things I am unable to
</EM><BR>
test.
