Thank you very much for your work at Epson so far! > We have a new maintainer, Wolfram Sang for the epson2 backend and I > believe that M.

Yes, thus I will only comment on the epson2 changes which are definately the smaller piece of changes. > I'm sure that we would normally hope to get smaller, more focused > changes but it is what it is! Yes, this would be much appreciated. At least a split between epson2 and epsonds. From what I see so far, for epson2, this could be further divided in patches like: - renew ADF handling - add AVAHI option - add the profile maps Such smaller patches would be much easier to review. I just wonder if people at Epson will have time and resources for that? The epsonds part has also more possibilities to split the big patch into smaller ones. One easy thing to make the patch smaller: I think most of the debug output was useful during development but may simply be dropped when releasing the code. Personal note: I don't have an network based epson scanner and zero experience with AVAHI etc. If someone here has experience with that, I'd be very thankful for support in that area. All the best and happy hacking everyone, Wolfram
