Hi,

I would like to propose a project (HAL Device Management) and request 
endorsement of the project by the Desktop community. Any comments are 
welcome.

Thanks & Regards,
Strony

Project Synopsis:

   HAL Device Management

Project Description:

  The current Gnome-device-manager is the GUI application of HAL, which 
just lists the device information in the GUI. We propose to enhance the 
HAL and Gnome-Device-manager by adding the management functionality to 
make the desktop users able to manage the devices easily. The new 
interfaces will be added into HAL to bridge HAL and devices 
administration tools in OS. Some buttons or menu will be added in the 
Gnome-device-manager. By the enhanced GUI, the desktop users will not 
need to manually run the command lines for the general devices 
management, for example, disable/enable devices, install/uninstall 
device driver and so on.

  The project team will cooperate with HAL community and be responsible 
for the implementation on Solaris.

Proposed Community Group sponsoring the project:
  Desktop

Initial list of participants:
  Strony.Zhang at sun.com
  Irene.Huang at Sun.COM
