well, I don't mind much about the standard version numbering ;) But you wrote in an earlier mail that some frontends may already support the 1 bit RGB mode. Since we should at least change the output of the test backend to conform with the addition to/clarification of the standard, the frontends should have some way to detect this change. So we should perhaps add something like "Before Sane release 1.0.9 RGB 1 bit data was stored in the reverse order." Abel
