This is needed to properly handle - devices with removable media. -- 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...) -- 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.) -- lots of other stuff...
