+	  backend/plustek-usbimg.c backend/plustek-usbmap.c
+	  backend/plustek-usbdevs.c backend/plustek-usbscan.c: Cleanup.
+	* backend/plustek.c: Bumped version and build number.
+	  Activated IPC between reader-process and parent.
+	* backend/plustek-usbio.c: usbio_DetectLM983x() now returns error if
+	  register could not be red, usbio_ResetLM983x() checks for reg7
+	  value before writing.
+	* backend/plustek-usbhw.c: Added button support for Plustek/Genius
+	  devices. Changed behaviour of usb_IsScannerReady().
+	  Added special misc I/O setup for CIS devices (usb_ResetRegisters).
+	* backend/plustek-usb.c: Minor fix for startup reset.
+	  Removed unnecessary calls to usbio_ResetLM983x().
+	* backend/plustek-usbshading.c: Readded kCIS670 to add 5% extra to
+	  LiDE20 fine calibration.
+	* backend/plustek-usbcal.c: Tried to use the settings from SANE-1.0.13.
+	  Added _TWEAK_GAIN to allow increasing GAIN during lamp coarse
+	  calibration. Added call to speedtest function.

+
+	* Makefile.in: Added Changelog-1.0.16 to DISTFILES.
+	* backend/hp4200.c doc/sane-hp4200.man
+	  doc/descriptions/hp4200.desc: Enabled backtracking by
+	  default. This is slower but avois bumping the scan head at the end
+	  of the scan area and also missing parts of the scanned
+	  image. Increased safety margin for backtracking. This fixes the
+	  "garbled image" bug. Set default gamma value to 2. Manpage
+	  update. Status set to "basic".
+	* frontend/scanimage.c: Don't exit with error when trying to set
+	  inactive options. This especially happens in connection with
+	  geometry options and the v4l backend (bugs #300321, #301977).
