maybe i'm wrong, but I understand when Greg told me about this .dev 
scripts that their name define their framework (e.g. : sda1.dev works 
only for event on /dev/sda1) and i don't observe this behaviour 
(actually, all scripts in /et/dev.d/block are called on udev event).

so what is the normal behaviour and is there a way (other than scripting 
to parse device names or other hack)/ a naming scheme to attribute an 
event to only one device (e.g. : sda1.dev do its job only for 
create/destroy of /dev/sda1)?

if it's not the case, is it planned?

thanks a lot

Florian
