I must say I fairly dismayed by this attitude, especially that they
brand me an "individual customer" after I had made it clear in the
request that the information would enable me (us) to develop the driver
on our own, and thus was not intended for just me myself.
I think we may have to publish a note on the SANE site to discourage
people from buying Minolta Scanners, until their attitude changes..
