Honestly, I agree with you. I am a udev maintainer myself, and the udev |
| 10 |
maintainers did not bring this issue to council. More than that, no one, |
| 11 |
that I recall, discussed any ramifications of this vote with any udev |
| 12 |
maintainers before bringing it to council. |

The ramifications, as I said in my previous email, are not just udev |
| 15 |
related (see the section in my previous email about the /usr merge). |

Once we start implementing the /usr merge, it will not matter whether |
| 18 |
you use udev or not, you will have to have an initramfs if your /usr is |
| 19 |
separate. |
