+udev 073
+========
+Fixed bug in udevd, if inotify is not available. We depend on netlink
+uevents now, kernels without that event source will not work with that
+version of udev anymore.
+
+udev 072
+========
+The rule parsing happens now in the daemon once at startup, all udev
+event processes inherit the already parsed rules from the daemon.
+It is shipped with SUSE10.0 and reduces heavily the system load at
+startup. The option to save precompiled rules and let the udev process
+pick the them up is removed, as it's no longer needed.
+
+Kernel 2.6.15 will have symlinks at /class/input pointing to the real
+device. Libsysfs is changed to "translate" the requested link into the
+real device path, as it would happen with the hotplug event. Otherwise
+device removal and the udev database will not work.
+
+Using 'make STRIPCMD=' will leave the binaries unstripped for debugging
+and packaging.
+
+A few improvements for vol_id, the filesytem probing code.
+
 udev 071
 ========
 Fix a stupid typo in extras/run_directory for "make install".
