  Hi,

> It's not just about code, it's as much about culture and development process.

Indeed.  The BSDs have both kernel and the base system in a single
repository.  There are probably good reasons for (and against) it.

In Linux we don't have that culture.  No tool (except perf) lives in the
kernel repo.  I fail to see why kvm-tool is that much different from
udev, util-linux, iproute, filesystem tools, that it should be included.

cheers,
  Gerd
