Hi. Can anyone explain the state of the SANE2 branch? I've noticed that the SANE2 development seems inactive. Is this branch discontinued?
I will make a try to eliminate the separate data port requirement for "saned". I think it should be possible to do this by extending the SANE1 protocol in a backwards compatible way, say, by introducing a new RPC call. Comments on this?

The development of SANE2 hasn't begun, there have been only discussions and there is a draft of the SANE2 standard. The standard is not finished yet as some of the problems are not easy to solve. > I will make a try to eliminate the separate data port requirement for > "saned".

Possible problems: You can't cancel a scan while data acquisition is in progress. This is one of the adavantages of the 2 port solution. Bye, Henning
