I'd like to suggest to cc all mail to sane-devel so we can keep the
discussions open.
Cheers,

  Mark> Hello...
  Mark> My name is Mark McLaughlin, and I am the current Chairperson
  Mark> on the TWAIN Working Group Technical Sub-committee.  I am
  Mark> sending this message to the manager for the SANE website in
  Mark> the hope that it will reach the appropriate people.
  Mark> There is growing interest (as viewed on our mailing list) for
  Mark> seeing TWAIN support on UNIX platforms, particularly on Linux.
  Mark> This interest has finally reached a level where the TWAIN
  Mark> Working Group feels it needs to investigate the possibility of
  Mark> adding support for UNIX.
  Mark> We are interested in this because we believe there is an
  Mark> opportunity to help developers of image capture systems on
  Mark> UNIX, WIN32 and Macintosh platforms leverage their code run on
  Mark> one or more or the alternate platforms.
  Mark> TWAIN has no intention of competing with SANE.  Rather we wish
  Mark> to investigate a chance to employ the strengths of both
  Mark> standards.  We are not against the idea of seeing SANE running
  Mark> on WIN32 or Macintosh platforms, and if there are ways we can
  Mark> help SANE achieve this we would be happy to discuss them.  It
  Mark> is important that both groups benefit from any interaction.
  Mark> We would like to start a dialog with one or more members of
  Mark> the SANE group to discuss this further.  Please feel free to
  Mark> respond directly to me, or to the TWAIN Working Group as a
  Mark> whole (twain-wg@twain.org); whichever you feel to be more
  Mark> apropriate.
  Mark> Many thanks for your time, we hope to hear from you soon...
