Well... no... not exactly. Udev isn't a replacement for hal. Udev is still mainly for creation of devices... now the kernel signaling technique that makes Udev work is, afaik, essentially what other things are now banking on to do their dirty deeds (the attempt to take a multi-user OS and give it single-user style operational privs). Thought that devicekit was still what was going to be used for that... but I could be wrong.

IMHO hal just restated what we already knew via udev and sysfs... and, IMHO, it's no wonder it was terminated.

lshal was a abstraction of an abstraction.... we didn't need another middleman.
