devfs - interesting news

[Collins Richey]

As posted on the gentoo home page:

Devfs was declared obsolete today in the 2.6-test kernel!?!

I can already hear the wild cheers from some of you.  It's not readily
apparent what the successor is.  There's something called UDEV in the
works, but what little data I can find leads me to believe that UDEV is
pre-alpha quality.

We'll see what comes next.
