hal removal has been discussed here a few weeks go and got no
objections:
<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2012-July/017430.html">https://www.mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-dev/2012-July/017430.html</A>

hal has been first replaced by DeviceKit, which has then been replaced
by udev + udisks, the later being again replaced by udisks2.
We are many architecture cycles away from hal already.

Fedora removed it one year ago already:

Do you have any example of such thirdparty software using it?
