Digital BW, The Print

Zone System diverged into intuitive/visual and quantitative/geek back in
the day...some people were techie, others more visual...different strokes.

Obviously the same divide occurs with inkjet printing (and scanning
and post processing)...they can be done very well technically by using
one's eyes or by using measurements. I know this is controversial: the
techie side generally dominates discussions, just as there are more
engineers in this world than there are poets (and we do need both).

Are there visually-oriented (not quantitatively oriented) sites,
books, gurus, Forums that occupy themselves with the combination of
FILM, scanning, and inkjet printing?  

I'm stressing *FILM* because so many of us know it intimately, are
well equipped for it, and aren't yet seeing consistently comparable
results from the best digital photographers. 

I'm NOT looking for basic Zone System...not White/Adams/Picker et al:
their concepts do relate but don't apply as intuitively and simply to
Vuescan, Silverfast, Epson or Nikon or Minolta scanner apps.

Links? Books? People? Ideas?
