[sane-devel] gt68xx backend ready for inclusion

Hi, Now that SANE 1.0.9 is released I think the gt68xx backend can be included into SANE: http://www.meier-geinitz.de/sane/gt68xx-backend/ That backend supports scanners based on the Grandtech GT-6801 and GT-6816 scanners, e.g. Mustek BearPaw TA and Plus scanners, the ARtec Ultima 2000 and a lot
