This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------bnYfsR2PS4t4CiBPinDoMhnP Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi, So sounds like we have quite a bit of work to do. I did a quick read through the threads and I will meditate on it a bit and try to summarise the main points for further discussion. An update to the SANE standard is massively overdue in my opinion by I understand the various positions. BTW, as a side note, I am now semi-retired!! So in theory I have a lot more time to give to the SANE project, not that I don't have other things to do though. :) So perhaps we have an opportunity to make some big changes now.
