No objections here. I've been waiting fort his move for a little while

refuse to move, maybe this is good enough incentive.
Just to make sure on a few things, we're talking x86 users here being the
hardcore 2.4 types, right?
While I'm all for 2.6, mips-side, we've still got some issues on IP22
(Indy/Indigo2) systems that forces me to keep a 2.4.31 ebuild around. Sparc is
also in a similar, although much bigger boat, where a whole lot of 2.6.x
releases just don't work for various systems, thus they have to stick with 2.4.x
as well.
Any of these changes that may affect 2.4/devfs usage need to keep this in mind
that some of us who still use 2.4/devfs may not be doing so out of choice,
simply because it's the only option we have.
