+udev 080
+========
+Complete removal of libsysfs, replaced by simple helper functions
+which are much simpler and a bit faster. The udev daemon operatesentirely
+on event parameters and does not use sysfs for simple rules anymore.
+Please report any new bugs/problems, that may be caused by this big
+change. They will be fixed immediately.
+
+The enumeration format character '%e' is deprecated and will be
+removed sometimes from a future udev version. It never worked correctly
+outside of udevstart, so we can't use it with the new parallel
+coldplug. A simple enumeration is as useless as the devfs naming
+scheme, just get rid of both if you still use it.
+
+MODALIAS and $modalias is not needed and will be removed from one of
+the next udev versions, replace it in all rules with ENV{MODALIAS} or
+the sysfs "modalias" value.
+
+Thanks a lot to Marco for all his help on finding and fixing bugs.

+udev 079
+========
+Let scsi_id request libata drive serial numbers from page 0x80.
+
+Renamed etc/udev/persistent.rules to persistent-disk.rules and
+added /dev/disk/by-name/* for device mapper device names.
+
+Removed %e from the man page. It never worked reliably outside
+of udevstart and udevstart is no longer recommended to use.

 ========
 Symlinks are now exported to the event environment. Hopefully it's no
