Hi, all,

I just sent v0.9 of the microtek backend upstream to David for inclusion
in the pre0.74 (and, later, 0.74) release.

You can also get a tar-ball of the relevant files off of the backend's
web page: http://www.mir.com/mtek/

Changes in this release:

o Complete rewrite of bit-shuffling, buffering, and color-handling code.
o Improved rescaling algorithm for expanded resolution scans.
o Support for 600GS (and maybe ZS, too) (thanks to Oliver Neukum).
o Support for document autofeeder and IIG (thanks to Ross Crawford).
o Fixed sane_cancel.
o sane_get_parameters size estimates are now accurate to the last bit.
o get_scan_status timeout increased (for 600GS), status code fixed.
o Fixed parsing of 3-pass bit in INQUIRY data.
o Stopped sending gamma tables to scanners that don't want them.
o Made precalibration a bit more robust (always attempt at least one
scan line now).
o Much, much code clean-up.
o Updated man-page.

Enjoy,
matt m.
