Rebasing to a moving target is insane. The qmp patches are committed already though, so this isn't a issue ;) Right now I have some wip patches against current master: http://repo.or.cz/w/qemu/kraxel.git/shortlog/refs/heads/qmp [1] Not sure whenever I base this on the default series or the other way around. Either way it will be a bit messy. cheers, Gerd [1] The friendly URLs are new, arn't they?
