Hi,
I have a suggestion for consideration regarding scanning/sane etc. The current OpenOffice includeds a TWAIN header file (obviously for windows/Mac that have twain scanners), would it make more sense for us to add an interface to betascan/scanfx/scanquix and then port over betscan (and upgrade to use the libusb port that is being worked on) that way we get a gui included, both betascan and scanfx use sane drivers so those would need recompiiling as well (and to include the USB functionality).
This may also help promote sale sof things like scanfx which includes extra finctionality?
Comments?

I'm going on my memory here, so i might be wrong, but the sane system itself provides the front-end for the sane drivers if i remember correctly.
