[sane-devel] HP 3570c scanner - No Backend?

[Damien Solley]

Hi All
I have recently received a HP 3570c scanner as a birthday present.
Unfortunately, I've discovered that SANE doesn't have a backend for it. 
Is anyone aware of development of a driver for it (or even for the HP
3500)? If not, can someone point me towards info on getting it done
myself? As this would be a large task, are any _developers_ interested
in writing a driver?
Cheers
Damien
