<EM>&gt; Yes, I suggest to create 2-3 packages: xcam, xscanimage and may be
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; the Java backend (is that still supported, does it work?)
</EM><BR>
<P>I believe we should limit this to 1 package. As a sysadmin, I find it
<BR>
truly painfull having to download many packages to test a system. I
<BR>
understand you want to keep your xsane separate. I accept that. The
<BR>
reason I suggested joining the two was to make it easier for us
<BR>
(moving the source into an existing package) and easier for users
<BR>
(they get &quot;all&quot; the sane frontends in one package). None of these
<BR>
reasons are very convincing. :-)
<BR>
<P>I suggest splitting SANE in two:
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;- all backends, documentation, scanimage and the Java library
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;- all X frontends and scanadf.
<BR>
<P>The goal must be to make it possible to upgrade the backends without
<BR>
changing the frontends, and to make it possible for users to only
<BR>
install the library if they have their own client (ie. xsane).
<BR>
<P>I guess it is a good idea to keep scanimage with the backends to have
<BR>
a test program available.
<BR>
