I have been busy lately but, from my viewpoint, the main problems (directly and indirectly) related to the backend are: - hpusbscsi+sane+avision will not handle large transfers. It is necessary to use a large SANE_SG_BUFFERSIZE. Is it easy to fix? - hpusbscsi+sg+scsi (?) will not properly handle sense requests. It seems to be a problem only for the film scanners: calibrating with the door open or trying to scan with the head still moving (this may be also be a problem for flatbeds, when doing successive scans); - calibration was never tuned because when Rene implemented it, we (hp and minolta people) could not use it because the backend would hang when trying to read a large request (see above). Since I discovered it I could not properlly test (volunteers welcome); - how do I implement film holder movement on a general basis (this is not for 1.07!); I hope that from next week I will be able to look at this again (for 1.0.8 or for 1.1?).
