Good idea. I propose to also include a "rating of supportedness",<br>
which should mean how cooperative the manufacturer is/was in order to<br>
provide documentation for the scanner (e.g. "0" means no docs at all or<br>
answers like "I do not understand your question - what's a scanner ?",<br>
"9" means excellent written documentation or even helping when asking<br>
back for specific concerns (am I dreaming ?))<br>
<p>
The information herefore should be gathered from the backend developers<br>
for the specific scanners. (for my own experience, I can vote a "1"<br>
for this single model Mustek backend (600 II N) I did)<br>
<p>
Regards,<br>
