Oh! I forgot another benefit which I consider a big one: * We won't conflict with other libusb apps anymore. So if someone is running SANE for their scanner and wants to turn on libusb debug, it won't affect concordance's output. libusb 1.0 uses an opaque context object to track this stuff. -- Phil Dibowitz p...@ipom.com Open Source software and tech docs Insanity Palace of Metallica http://www.phildev.net/ http://www.ipom.com/ "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss
