 This is a short list of things that needs to be done.  They are in no specific

+- More documentation:
+    Allmost all extras/*_id/  programs don't have a man page
+    some details are missing in the udev man pages.
 
+- Completely replace the built-in wait_for_sysfs stuff in udev_sysfs.c
+  by rules using the WAIT_FOR_SYSFS key.
+
+- 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.
+
+- Do generic early boot logic:
+    initramfs, pivot-root, cover coldplug or event replay, etc...
+
+- Keep the distro rules in etc/ up-to-date.
 
-- 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.
-- 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.
