+ <body>
+ <p><tt>evdev</tt> is a portable, API-compatible implementation of
+ the Linux <tt>/dev/input/eventX</tt> interface. It covers a wide
+ variaty of input devices like keyboards, mice, and touchscreens
+ (with multitouch support), and support for it is implemented in a
+ lot of existing userland components like Qt, <tt>libinput</tt>, and
+ <tt>tslib</tt>.</p>
+
+ <p><tt>evdev</tt> support was started by Jakub Klama as a Google SoC
+ 2014 project, and later picked up and finished by Vladimir
+ Kondratiev. General API and <tt>evdev</tt> support bits for
+ <tt>ukbd</tt> and <tt>ums</tt> were committed to HEAD. Support was
+ also added for TI's AM33xx touchstreen controller (the popular
+ BeagleBone is based on the AM33xx) and the official touschreen for
+ the Raspberry Pi. Multitouch support for the Raspberry Pi was
+ successfully demoed using the lastest Qt development branch.</p>
