udev is going to be unmasked, not stabilized. By the time udev gets |
| 20 |
into x86/amd64, hopefully the documentation necessary will be ready. |

You can suscribe to bug 407959 |
| 23 |
(https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407959), which tracks the |
| 24 |
documentation changes necessary. Right now the only blocker is 408691 |
| 25 |
(https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408691), but I'm sure it will |
| 26 |
be joined by more bugs in the near future. |

Devs are already working on the documentation. If you have a test |
| 29 |
spare machine, you can help them, and the whole Gentoo comunity. |
