+udev 077
+========
+Fix a problem if udevsend is used as the hotplug handler and tries to use
+syslog, which causes a "vc" event loop. 2.6.15 will make udevsend obsolete
+and this kind of problems will hopefully go away soon.

 ========
 All built-in logic to work around bad sysfs timing is removed with this
@@ -7,6 +13,27 @@ the timing of the "bus" link creation, the former integrated logic should
 be emulated by a rule placed before all other rules:
   ACTION=="add", DEVPATH=="/devices/*", ENV{PHYSDEVBUS}=="?*", WAIT_FOR_SYSFS="bus"
 
+The option "udev_db" does no longer exist. All udev state will be in
+/$udev_root/.udev/ now, there is no longer an option to set this
+to anything else.
+If the init script or something else used this value, just depend on
+this hardcoded path. But remember _all_content_ of this directory is
+still private to udev and can change at any time.
+
+Default location for rule sripts and helper programs is now: /lib/udev/.
+Everything that is not useful on the commandline should go into this
+directory. Some of the helpers in the extras folder are installed there
+now. The rules need to be changed, to find the helpers there.
+
+Also /lib/udev/devices is recommended as a directory where packages or
+the user can place real device nodes, which get copied over to /dev at
+every boot. This should replace the various solutions with custom config
+files.
+
+Udevsend does no longer start the udev daemon. This must be done with
+the init script that prepares /dev on tmpfs and creates the initial nodes,
+before starting the daemon.

 Silent a too verbose error logging for the old hotplug.d/ dev.d/
