Implementing udev in Guile Scheme is a fascinating exercise but lacks broad utility.

Strengths
  • Demonstrates Guile Scheme's capability for low-level system programming tasks.
  • Provides a unique reference implementation for device management in niche OS projects.
Weaknesses
  • The landing page returns 'Access denied', preventing any evaluation of the actual code.
  • udev is a solved problem in C; a Scheme rewrite offers little practical advantage for most.
