-- more documentation (can never have too much.)
-- document the config file format (it will change over time...)
-- add proper man page
-- add klibc to the build process (or make it easier to do) to get
- smaller binary
-- import latest libsysfs and convert udev to use it.
-- On remove, look up the device in the database (now that we have one) and
- delete what was created, not what the kernel is calling the device.
-- add symlink generation and removal support
-- better partition support (it's a hack right now, maybe new libsysfs changes
- can help out a lot here.)
-- 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.
-- make program work like design says it should (three parts, not 1)
-- add hooks to call D-BUS when new node is created or removed
-- lots of other stuff...
+These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future
+udev version:
+ o remove old udevdb dump 'udevinfo -d'
+ (-e exports everything)
+
+ o remove udevstart
+ (we rely on the kernel "uevent" triggers of kernel 2.6.15 and no longer
+ want to guess event properties from sysfs like udevstart is doing it)
+
+ o remove extra for /etc/dev.d/ /etc/hotplug.d/
+ (that inefficient stuff should finally go away)
