Hm, yeah that rule should have worked.  Mind enabling debugging in
namedev.c by uncommenting the line:
//#define DEBUG_PARSER

at the top of the file?  If you rebuild udev, and then send me the
syslog debug messages when you plug the device in, I'd really apreciate
it.

Hm, if it's always sdc1, why not just use a simple REPLACE rule?
Something like the following rules should work for you:

REPLACE, KERNEL="sdc1", NAME="c6b0t69l01"
REPLACE, KERNEL="sdc2", NAME="c6b0t69l02"

Will that work?

thanks,
