[fprint] Authentec Design Specification - AES2810 & AES2550

[Vasily Khoruzhick]

Hi Greg,

Thank you very much!

Now there's a question if someone from libfprint/fprintd maintainers
are going to implement drivers
for those devices in the near furure.

I can do it for sure, but it'll take several months (it's just a hobby
for me :)) unless there's someone
who can do it faster (maybe someone from RedHat supports libfprint on
regular basis? Bastian? :))

So, is anyone except me going to implement drivers for AES2550/AES2810
and/or ask AuthenTec for device?

Regards
Vasily
