-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.
+These things would be nice to have:
+ o get all distros to agree on a default set of rules
+ o rework rules to a match-action list, instead of a rules array

+These things will change in future udev versions:
+ o log warning if the kernel uses CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED*=y,
+ which means that /sys/class/block/ does not exist
+ o DEVTYPE for disks is set by the kernel, they will be removed from
+ the default rules
+ o "udevadm control" commands will only accept the --<command> syntax
+ o symlink names to udevadm will no longer be resolved to old command names
-
-- more documentation (can never have too much.)
-- install the proper init.d script based on the distro we are running on.
-- persuade the distro packagers to submit their changes (or just steal them
- if we can find them...)
-- 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.)
-- lots of other stuff...
+before next release:
+ o handle old "device" link in get_parent (CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED*=y)
+ o handle "subsystem", "driver", as device
+ o switch libudev API to syspath instead of devpath
