Agree.

Actually, I'm not interested at all in a C API implementation of the DLL (I
don't believe SANE has been ported to Win32). I want to write a TWAIN DLL
that communicates to saned on my Linux box. As far as I can tell the only
way to communicate with saned over a network is RPC -- If I'm wrong *please*
tell me, I'd be happy to be wrong :)
