Is that Qemu GPL compatible? Though I suspect a clean implementation may be easier. The source code file headers show a standard 2-clause BSD, which is compatible with the GPL. So it is fine to incorporate BSD licensed code in QEMU, as long as you preserve attribution & copyright notices Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://live.gnome.org/gtk-vnc :|
