+========
+Add persistent links for SCSI tapes. The rules file is renamed
+to 60-persistent-storage.rules.
+
+Create persistent path for usb devices. Can be used for all sorts
+of devices that can't be distinguished by other properties like
+multiple identical keyboards and mice connected to the same box.
+
+Provide "udevtrigger" program to request events on coldplug. The
+shell script is much too slow with thousends of devices.

+========
+Fix persistent disk rules to exclude removable IDE drives.

+Warn if %e, $modalias or MODALIAS is used.

+Fix queue export, which wasn't correct for subsequent add/remove

+udev 085
+========
+Fix cramfs detection on big endian.
+
+Make WAIT_FOR_SYSFS usable in "normal" rules and silent if the whole
+device goes away.

-CROSS changed to CROSS_COMPILE to match the kernel build.
+If BUS== and SYSFS{}== have been used in the same rule, the sysfs
+attributes were only checked at the parent device that matched the
+by BUS requested subsystem. Fix it to also look at the device we
+received the event for.

+Build variable CROSS has changed to CROSS_COMPILE to match the kernel
+build name.
