Hi FreeBSD/X11 folks,

as an occasional GNU/kFreeBSD porter, I've been wondering what's going
to happen with hal going away/being unmaintained. I've been pointed to
a blog post about Xfce on *BSD [1], where it is mentioned that devd
might be used as a udev equivalent.

 1. http://gezeiten.org/post/2011/01/Xfce-4.8-on-BSD-flavors

Are there any plans to add devd support to xorg on your side? I'm
putting the Debian GNU/kFreeBSD users/porters list and the Xorg devel
list in Cc.

KiBi.
