-This is a short list of things that needs to be done. They are in no specific
-order. I will gladly accept patches for any of these items, or any other stuff
-people offer up.

-- add modifiers and more documentation about the config file to the man
- page.
-- add ability to capture CALLOUT result and use it in a device name.
-- fix kernel name logic to handle devices like sdaj and such.
-- make real test harness and have the tests be automated (instead of
- relying on me knowing what the proper files should be created.)
-- more documentation (can never have too much.)
-- document the config file format (it will change over time...)
-- add symlink generation and removal support
-- better partition support (it's a hack right now, maybe new libsysfs changes
- can help out a lot here.)
-- allow database to be queried by other programs
-- split program into two pieces (daemon and helper that sends events to it).
- This will allow us to keep track of sequences, and lots of other needed
- stuff.
-- keep track of current permissions on devices when daemon shuts down.
-- better permission handling
-- create kernel name to devfs name config file so that all of the devfs users
- will have an upgrade path.
-- do early boot logic (putting udev into initramfs, handle pivot-root,
- etc.)
-- add hooks to call D-BUS when new node is created or removed
-- lots of other stuff...
-- actually use the BUS= value to determine where the LABEL rule should look
- (right now it's ignored, and we only look in the current sysfs directory.)
- This is needed, for example, to look at the usb device's serial number of a
- usb-storage device, instead of the scsi device's sysfs directory for the
- serial number.
+ - udev_enumerate_add_match_subsystem(enum, "input");
+ udev_enumerate_add_match_sysname(enum, "event*");
+ udev_enumerate_add_match_children(input_dev);
+ udev_enumerate_scan_devices(enum);
+
+ - test (now fixed) /dev/tape/ links
+
+ - monitor: use clock MONOTONIC
+
+ - remove RUN+="socket:"
+
+ - libudev: return proper errno or set errno
+
+ - move ctrl.c from libudev/ to udev/
+
+ - move:
+ udevd -> --libexecdir
+ udevadm -> --bindir
+
+ - /run/udev/control socket
+ (add ConditionVirtualization=!pidns)
+
+ - kill rules_generator:
+ - no longer rename netifs in kernel namespace
+ - drop persistent optical names
+ - do not create rules on-the-fly, require explicit configuration
+ for netifs and optical drives
+ - properly document what system management needs to put
+ into rules files
+
+ - kill tabs?
+
+ - remove deprecated trigger --type=failed logic
+
+ - remove deprecated BUS=, SYSFS{}=, ID= keys
