+
+	* backend/musteka4s2.desc: Added all more scanners and
+	  :interface entries
+	* backend/sagitta.desc: Removed on behalf of the author. Nobody
+	  has showed interest in this very old (and rare) scanner over

+	  module is neccessary. Nobody volunteered to take over
+	  maintainership.
+	* backend/tamarack.c: Changed all fprintf to DBG calls.

+	* frontend/xscanimage.c, frontend/preview.c: Fixed a small bug
+	concerning 3-pass scanners. gdk_input_add() was called three times
+	without a preceding gdk_input_remove().
+
+	* frontend/scanimage.c: Fixed a bug where the scan was cancelled
+	after a test for low mem even if enough memory is available. This
+	probably only affected 3-pass scanners.
+
+2000-04-02 Henning Meier-Geinitz <hmg@gmx.de>
+
+        * backend/mustek.*: Update to Mustek backend 0.78. Fixed several

+        problems with TPU and occasional crashes during startup.
+        Added D1 level for Perfection 610.
+        Added first version of support for set threshold and set
+        zoom.
