Sorry, bad wording on my part. The delay is with dropping devfs. We
aren't dropping it yet for good reason (because we have the best of both

advertized it well, nothing we can do about it. This is much more of a
PR problem. Sorry to even bring it up.
As you said yourself, it was (and still is) advertized well, I don't know
how this can be improved (even from PR PoV). The only improvement I can
think of is to extend the FAQ and hope that all developers point to it.
Or, the relevant projects can put up a news item to inform the users (or if
they don't think it is important enough to justify a news item, have it
added to the GWN - these folks are doing a great job with their endaveours
and accept almost every feedback or addenda you might have).
Until we actually drop devfs, we are doing the best we can. Dropping
devfs sends a clear signal. We'll just have to deal with it until that
time comes. Anyway, back to the desktop... ;)
