For the first release or two, this could be true. However the goal is to
get most of it upstream, so it's likely to require much less maintenance
in the long run.
Why don't you supply a diff of the shipped udev rules vs. udev-config
so we can see just how much of an issue we have?
I was refering to the Udev Bible, AKA writing-udev-rules.html :-)
FWIW, that file is not written by the Udev maintainer. I don't think
he even looks at it. He just applies patches to it if anyone provides
them.
