Hi guys,
at LPC we agreed to be more inviting to non-qemu implementations of the
vhost-user protocol, as a 1st step, by making a mailing list for vhost
user spec patches. This way people can follow just these patches if they
want.

I started the process, will take a bit, see below (redacted):

Hi Michael,

We can do this - however there will be a delay, as it will have to be
after we finish implementing new list server infrastructure (which is
happening at the moment). I don't have an ETA currently for when we
will be adding new lists - likely weeks, not months - at this point.

apologies for any inconvenience.

cheers
