Hi, I wanted to add my 'vote' to this, adding HAL is a truly horrible horrible thing to do. For a lot of people HAL is a 'nasty' side of Linux userland and so far by using Debian, up until now, we have been able to avoid it.
HAL is one of those things that show that although the Linux kernel is becoming really shiny, the userspace world is heading in a really ugly direction. Please don't force the *whole* Debian community to be part of this.
