You're right in that it was a misunderstanding then, since I agree with what
you state here. Sorry about that. If devfs works for you, by all means
continue using it. There will still be some maintenance for a while, as
usual in the Linux world. If you're planning to learn and/or get used to
what will be used in the middle run, then check out sysfs/udev since that's
where things are leading.
