Have you any idea how the organization of the coding will work if/when
the
Non-Disclosure Agreement will be signed ?
What I mean is that since only a limited number of people can actually
sign then
this limits the number of developers !
Maybe we could get some people to start developing the necessary part of
the
backend for SANE ?
And then simply "plug in" the protocol messages as they are available ?

Thats true, but then sometimes buying a jigsaw and putting it together
is more
of a challenge than just buying a picture 8-)
