Hi Henning,

Nice work.

Yes.
Is it possible to add links to the manufacturers in the top of the list for an 
easier access?

Also in that page, the status of the support of each scanner could be used 
instead of the status of their backend. The reason is that a backend might 
support very well a scanner, but have a lesser support for another.

The status for a scanner support would be alpha, beta, stable, untested (ie. 
support is there but untested) and maybe (ie. it is possible that this backend 
can support that scanner.)

Frank.
