Ubuntu likely to abandon HAL next cycle -- is this workable?

Consensus here seems to be to try and remove HAL from the archive.

Wine still uses it, so this means we'll either need to lobby for keeping
HAL or to migrate to udisks.  Does udisks meet our needs?  Will it work
for a future USB driver?  Is someone working on the migration?

Thanks,
Scott Ritchie
