Sure i did read it, it is still a shame that firewire webcam support will not
work out of the box with udev because of that. Adding a disclaimer saying you
don't care and don't want to be bothered by this is no solution. And if you
had kept a wishlist bug open or something about this instead of just closing
it ...

At least add a comment about this in the README.Debian so people can easily
setit up themselves, instead of having to investigate over much and maybe not
find the right way to do this themselves.

Also, the sarge kernel will not be fixed anymore, since it has been frozen
since a couple of month or so, not sure about lib1394 though, how do you
expect lib1394 to solve this ? By creating the devices itself ? By making the
lib1394 package postinst create it ? 

Also, i am just curious, are you also one of the DDs who happen to work on
ubuntu too ? Because it is just this kind of behavior which will make people
migrate to it from debian.
