Future sources Udev. Message from the developers.
We are going to merge with the source code Udev systemd. After that, the next version will continue the numbering systemd versions Udev, ie 45 immediately after the release version will be 184 systemd.
After the merger with Udev systemd you can build it (udev), without systemd, and we will support this possibility formally. In fact, we will maintain it for a long period of time, as it is necessary for the operation of initrd (since it does not need systemd) properly. Distributions that do not want to use systemd Udev can collect as well as before, but you should use a source archive systemd, instead of an archive with source code and Udev packages required for the assembly.

In addition, the whole effect even more inaccessible than unity, where the menu was displayed earlier today directly and on mouseover. With Gnome 3 is the menu that appears when you click.
I mean, we are talking about a desktop system, no-touch mobile OS. Whilst I appreciate that for small screens it follows a general sense menu. However, something should then be more likely option. As far as I know the entire desktop (in principle) be built on HTML, you should also design a responsive yet not be a problem. Happy with the option not to use the responsive behavior. Who bootstrap concepts should be familiar with, or similar menu, but can be expected that a desktop can own a similar behavior could be.
