Well, hal-0.5.13 is in the tree and fully working. This brings us up to current for the hal world, and should unblock further udev/devicekit work.
Sorry for the problems getting it it; it was a major change. Hotplug is working again.
If anything is still broken for you, you know where to go.
Due to a number of reasons, I ended up taking a couple of weeks off from Gentoo. I didn’t go cold turkey; I kept reading my bug mails, but nothing else. I was hoping the time off would give me a clear idea of whether I wanted to continue with Gentoo, or if I should just give up and close that chapter of my life.
Of course, nothing is ever that easy. I ended missing it somewhat, but also enjoying not having to deal with the crap. So, my stated time is up, and for the benefit of everyone involved, I should probably make my mind up. So *drumroll* I’m coming back. (You read the title, yes?)
I’m going to try to scale back my involvement a bit, to hopefully avoid the burnout I had before. This means I’ll be officially leaving some of the herds I’m in, and orphaning some of the packages I maintain. I’m going to stay with the Gnome herd and the fd.o herd, tho, because that’s the software I use most.
As of now, I’m back on IRC, but I have to rebuild my dev box (I put Fedora on it, to play around), so I won’t be able to get much done for the next couple of days. I don’t plan on reading -dev@ or -core@, although I’ll read -dev-announce@. We’ll see what happens.
Oh, and all you people with hal bugs? I’ll get to them, I promise.
