I joined this this because I use sane with a Fujitsu C600 and learned that I
*liked* the product. I am by no means an "expert" with regards to SANE...
I use this to list provide me with information... Plus I am currently writing a
back-end for the Fujitsu ScanPartner10 and ScanPartner10C (I might add it's
going pretty good too. I am about 1/2 way there...). Usually, I just sit
back and read the posts on this list... Gleaning info that useful and etc...
However, I have a question: Is it normal policy on this list to curse users
who want to use SANE and attempt to embarrass them? I believe this hurts the
product and the reputation of those who work on it. Could someone in authority
on this list please clarify this issue.
Best
