Heya,
I've created this page to track the removal of HAL (hopefully) for F13: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/HalRemoval
Could you please check your package and add them to the list if: - they rely on HAL or libhal - they rely on gnome-vfs2 (which still requires HAL, and is deprecated) - they rely on libgnomeui (which requires gnome-vfs2)
We're only tracking Desktop spin applications, and applications you'd expect to see installed on GNOME desktops.
Cheers

You mean remove HAL completely or only from the desktop spin? There is quite a lot of stuff that still depends on HAL and will not be rewritten for F13.
If you are intending to remove HAL completely for F13, please announce it properly to all Fedora developers/maintainers ASAP.

So where is the rest being tracked?

The feature page could harly be clearer:
This feature tracks the removal of HAL in the Fedora Desktop spin.
Removing hal dependencies from the wider package universe will obviously take a little longer. At some point we'll probably force the issue by orphaning hal, but we are clearly not at that point yet.

Just to be clear; does this mean that if hal is pulled in, it will largely function? Say there's some UI tool that does the equivalent of "lshal".
