any incompatible changes in this version or other recent versions?
any new changes we should do to our udev rules?

I remember that debian etch udev doesn't like DRIVER, wants me to switch to
DRIVERS=. And ubuntu EDGY udev doesn't know about SUBSYSTEMS (guess too
old). So I need start using a per distribution/version udev rules file,
or loose the ability to run the latest software on older distributions?

my rule file is available at
https://www.opensc-project.org/openct/browser/trunk/etc/openct.udev

also is there any news about /dev/bus/usb as a /proc/bus/usb replacement?
will I be able to use it with newer kernel and udev?

if not I fear I need to check recent distributions and file bug reports,
as some seem to bind-mount /dev/bus/usb to /proc/bus/usb, with the result
that I don't get events from udev because /proc/bus/usb is not mounted with
an usbfs. - I hope I remember this correctly.

Thanks for your help.

Regards, Andreas
