My intention is to improve SANE.
If it is not for a gradual and compatible improvement of SANE, but a significant rewrite it would make more sense to adapt an wide deployed industrial standard such as TWAIN, than spending human years of efford just to rewrite everything from scratch. SANE and TWAIN are not that far from each other anyway and this would also make it easier for vendors to support Linux beside Mac and the other os. Not that this would be my primary choice, but it definetly would be saner than rewriting SANE just for the fun of it. And I also want to point out once more that during a major rewite we'll probably loose drivers for old hardware as there will be few people re-writing a backend for the oldest devices most developers do not have anymore.
