Yes, of course. Once some more code is ready, but as of now, we still need review and comments on the hypervisor side to make sure the hypervisor part itself is ready (soundness,design,security,etc). I want to note however that the v4v capability provided is modeled like a simplified "network" stack, so that the design is suppose to stand by itself without any client code. > What is your upgrade plan for libvchan users?

If that make sense, then a plan could be devised. -- Vincent
