How to do without polling in user space ?

That's really nice !!! Also, patching sane_get_devices () to use HAL,
then patch saned to publish through avahi, then path again
sane_get_device to use avahi and we get the trick !

SuSE is known to have some patch for HAL and SANE integration, so even
if SANE does not includes patches, we might at least integrate such
patches in distributions. However, if the changes are optionnal at
compile time, SANE people may include it. They already included fdi
generator. That's a step forward.

Donald, what do you think of that ?

Right, the discussion might leave this list.
