udev-extras 20090516
====================
-
+New keymap tool to take over HAL's keymap handling. The map
+files, which contain the mapping from scan codes to keycodes
+for various custom hardware are part of the udev-extras
+package.
+
+New simple persistent device names for alsa devices, used by
+PulseAudio.
+
+New udev-acl tool to grant local useres access to devices by
+adding an access control list for the user's uid. All devices
+tagged with the ACL_SET=1 tag will get an ACL assigned for all
+locally logged-in users. It hooks into the udev event process
+for new devices, and ConsoleKit for users logging in and out.
+This will replace the ACL management in HAL.
+
+New v4l_id tool to merge some core video4linux capabilities to
+devices, which can be queried later with libudev.
