I wrote that **an** abstraction layer is the way to go.

That said, I report bugs when I find them and they're not already in the BTS. I send patches when I like the software enough, and I'm good enough (neither of these is the case with hal). > and they need to be written.

I think I (and the other people who are against X dependency on hal) have been pretty clear on the fact that we would just like an alternative, not to kick hal away (we're not stupid nor crazy). I think this would be good for debian. I see you want to drag this in a flame, so I step back, I can live with equivs as long as possible instead of wasting my time writing emails. So long, Luca P.S.
