Help can be a very bad thing for a Scout, especially when the Help blows your cover.

• When sneaking up behind a target, Helpful fire from behind alerting your target doesn't help.
• When stalking a pile of reds, Help rushing in and ruining your nade strike doesn't help.
• When luring an opponent into a trap, Help interfering doesn't help.
• When honorably dueling a hostile Scout Brother, Help tilting odds doesn't help.
• When haunting an objective, Help engaging a would-be hacker prematurely doesn't help.
• When operating in confined spaces, Help on your heels obstructing your escape route doesn't help.
• When working a flank, tag-along Help lighting up on hostile scanners doesn't help.

These scenarios are arguments against the "buff" of sharing Passive Scan results. In contrast, sharing Active Scanner results -- as you've described -- is indeed quite helpful. Like Duncan said, there's a good chance we Scouts are only gonna get one Christmas present from CCP. If that turns out to be the case, I hope CCP gifts us with something that helps directly. I could be wrong, but helping the Help will likely not help our performance.

My thoughts on Passive Scan Radius are thus:

Keep the Scan Radius of all Medium and Heavy Frame Suits/Variants at 10m, and increase the radius for all Light Frame Suits, and Non-Gallente Scout Suits, to 15m. Gallente Scouts stay at 10m. Don't yell at me, I'm not done yet.

The major change comes in the bonus that the Scan Radius skill gives you. I say increase that to 20% per level, and increase the Gallente Racial bonus for scouts to 20% as well.

What you will get in the end is this:

Medium and Heavy Frame Suits/Variants - 20m Passive Scan Radius with skill at Level 5.
All Light Frame/Non- Gallente Scout Suits - 30m Passive Scan Radius with skill at Level 5.
Gallente Scouts - 40m Passive Scan Radius with skill at Level 5, and Racial Bonus at Level 5.

This gives all scouts, and the Gallente in particular, a clear advantage in scan range, but also increases the scan range of the other suits as well, making a scouts stealth capabilities meaningful outside of just avoiding the Active Scanner.

I like the Backstab idea as well. If the rumors are true, and scouts are going to get cloaking device "SoonTM", then I would tie those two together. When cloaked, a scout gets somewhere between 10-25% damage bonus on the target (at any range), giving the scout an Alpha Strike ability that we currently lack. As soon as we fire though, we become visible and the bonus is then lost until the cooldown is complete and the cloak reactivates. So as long as the scout remains in active combat he does not get the Alpha Strike Bonus. This, combined with the changes in Passive Scan listed above, would make the scout the master of the Hit and Run. Still weak in a sustained fight, but deadly when fighting on our own terms.

Proto galante scout is best for speed with 4 low slots i calculated that they can get 1.00 more speed than a proto minmatar this is stupid and makes minmatar scouts useless apart from the shields but caldari scouts is coming
