Hi, New backends must have been included into sane-backends until 2002-04-22 (next Monday). As we need some time to check the backends (and you to fix them :-) please contact the list during the next days, if you want to see your backend in sane-backends-1.0.8.
The only pending new backend I heard from recently is coolscan2, which had some comments from me and Frank. If it's ready now, please mail me. Otherwise I don't know of any backend but maybe your mail was lost or I missed it so if there is another backend for 1.0.8, please cry now :-) Concerning the update for the canon backend (Ulrich Deiters): I had some comments on this. What's the actual status? If it can't be finished, I can try myself. However, there is some more time (until 2002-05-01) because it's just an update. Bye, Henning
