We should first go for a seperate dbus daemon and then think about how to integrate with HAL. Trying to extend HAL to become pluggable and configurable plus adding the features we need will hardly be managable within the GSoC time constraints. What is needed is a tiny generic framework that just delivers dbus messages to individual plugins and back. Then, you can add all kinds of plugins for various machines. See http://www.freesmartphone.org/mediawiki/index.php/Implementations/OpenDeviceDaemon for a list of thoughts that went into yet. (Note: I think Vala would make the perfect implementation language for this daemon) -- Dr. Michael 'Mickey' Lauer | IT-Freelancer | http://www.vanille-media.de _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-devel mailing list Angstrom-distro-devel@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-devel
