I haven't heard from mancio_...@libero.it after his initial posting (http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2003-November/009360.html). If he doesn't answer on this list, try to contact him directly. > However in case the driver is already close to finished and/or there already > are enough developers aiming at the same driver, I'd stop pursuing this > idea and instead find myself another subject for my Thesis. At least I don't remember anyone posted a link to code or a website for that scanner. If that doesn't happen some weeks after the first announcement, this usually menas that the project is dead. But I like to be surprised otherwise :-) Anyway, even if someone worked on this project, you could still try to write a backend for any of the other unsupported scanners. The list is so long, you shouldn't have trouble to find one :-) Bye, Henning
