---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 Release announcement was made (via the linux-hotplug-devel list) about 3
 hours ago; the message isn't in any of the ML archives that I've seen yet.

 ChangeLog is here:

 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/hotplug/udev.git;a=blob;hb=HEAD;f=ChangeLog

 but there's a typo in the versions; the first section should be "changes
 from 105 to 106", not "104 to 105".  The second section is also "104 to
 105".

 In any case, we should change the udev-config Makefile to use {{{udevd
 --version}}} instead of {{{udevinfo --version | awk blah}}} at the same
 time this version goes into the book.  The output of udevd is easier to
 parse, too; it's just the version number.

 Other changes that I think are noteworthy from the above ChangeLog:

 - Persistent-storage support for tape devices and media changers[[br]]
 - Fix retry-loop in netif-rename code[[br]]
 - rule_generator checks for existing device names in both /etc and
 /dev[[br]]
 - Fix udev attribute names with a colon

 There are also other bugfixes, documentation updates, etc.
