Re: Portability?

It's the only way it can be done. HAL is a back-end, but the only way it can be used in different operating systems is if it is actually there - which is only Linux at the moment. There is a lot of OS dependant stuff when it comes to hardware communication. Likewise, Solid can only be used if the Solid backends are there.

Another way of wording this is to say that you port the necessary Solid backends to each platform and they will then be supported ;-).
