-- use mknod(2) and not execute mknod(1)
-- add klibc to the build process (or make it easier to do) to get
-  smaller binary
-- document the config file format (it will change over time...)
-- persistant naming database backend
-- 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 need to be done, or would be nice to have:
+
+  o Log the relationship of the kernel name and the persistent disk name
+    to syslog, so any error logged from the kernel can be associated with
+    any of the links at that time.
+
+  o Fix inconsistency with KERNEL and ID. ID will walk up the device chain
+    but it matches on "KERNEL names" too. And ID and SYSFS can only match
+    on the same device in the chain. That's pretty hard to explain and to
+    understand. Same for SUBSYSTEM and BUS.
+
+
+These things are deprecated and scheduled for removal in a future
+udev version:
+
+  o remove broken %e enumeration
+    (simple enumerations can't work and should go)
+
+  o remove devfs naming scheme rules and scripts
+
+  o remove MODALIAS + $modalias
+    (ENV{MODALIAS}, $env{MODALIAS}, $sysfs{modalias} will do it)
+
+  o remove udevstart, udevsend
+    (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)
