Just to make sure on a few things, we're talking x86 users here being the |
| 8 |
hardcore 2.4 types, right? |

While I'm all for 2.6, mips-side, we've still got some issues on IP22 |
| 11 |
(Indy/Indigo2) systems that forces me to keep a 2.4.31 ebuild around. Sparc is |
| 12 |
also in a similar, although much bigger boat, where a whole lot of 2.6.x |
| 13 |
releases just don't work for various systems, thus they have to stick with 2.4.x |
| 14 |
as well. |

Any of these changes that may affect 2.4/devfs usage need to keep this in mind |
| 17 |
that some of us who still use 2.4/devfs may not be doing so out of choice, |
| 18 |
simply because it's the only option we have. |
