- more documentation (can never have too much.)
-- document the config file format (it will change over time...)
-- 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 way to set permission to the local user.
+- 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...)
- 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.)
-- add hooks to call D-BUS when new node is created or removed
- lots of other stuff...
-- actually use the BUS= value to determine where the LABEL rule should look
- (right now it's ignored, and we only look in the current sysfs directory.)
- This is needed, for example, to look at the usb device's serial number of a
- usb-storage device, instead of the scsi device's sysfs directory for the
- serial number.
