Ok, considering all of this, I guess it would still be within the scope of Angstrom to work on a daemon using HAL/D-Bus for Angstrom. Since the deadline is rapidly approaching, I'll put all ideas that have been discussed on the wiki, and someone with more insight/power than I can decide if the

So, if I understand correctly, HAL could be used to integrate with D-Bus? Or are the two things exclusive? If it's exclusive, why would we choose one or the other? It seems to me(from my very cursory understanding) is that HAL is a more complete solution, and further implemented in the desktop

I sent a preliminary message to the OE list, and it didn't seem to be very good feedback. From what I saw, it didn't sound like anyone on the OE side of things was that interested in having a GSoC project... Perhaps because there aren't that many 'googly' type of projects that OE needs done.
