It has been a challenge to make a tool for Arch based on its philosophy not to handicap the users with an "easy configure tool" at the same time not making it too "raw" for those with less linux / Arch knowledge. The solution was/is to detect all hardwares and modules (what majority users will appreciate) without auto configure and making a howto man page to educate the Arch way of configure. There are still lot to be done but that's the aim of hwd.
So far I have only received positive comments. Sarah31 and few other Arch oldtimers are my "food for thoughts" making hwd to improve..... that's the Arch way
To make a "50-50" tool, hwd became slow in detecting and generating howtos, so the plan is to speed it up. We may not mind it's slow speed running in PC or Laptop, but for any live CD using hwd its annoying.
