If we add this in 2.3, libvirt will use it. If we wait until 2.4, libvirt will manage without (as it has already managed without for all earlier releases); it is just a little bit harder to ensure that formats are being uniformly used. I'm okay if this topic proves too controversial to add into 2.3 at this late in the cycle, even though I'm in favor of adding it. --=20 Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org --s7Phbx9FmnjwMtIjmlJm2rPbssiQx47P4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Public key at http://people.redhat.com/eblake/eblake.gpg Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJVEXErAAoJEKeha0olJ0NqzBQH/ivff8ccGoSHW2QUeu8M+7nc S9ljX+0jIkwIrbMYYKcn3uM4ybiYgRVvjxr1kK5LNrbLjAClqbhmxwnbgF5IZMyz 7K3SPa6DxQUwOSLC80W+OespblngCyO2/b00I5DeDvVBxSFO0ZfNy7go9EtQIHpP HgpnJpR//O63VR4WAUmSoS7oBkUaK5Ym20vL9a2MFUAJH4t5yq1i3NvsSr8WBHm3 7a8nHMr2uIu15kXx8PgxdE6NL32EHRVIsL5ExsslyJOgVaveoqqR2u2twT4ZTuti 9D8mxyUPPmozi9ct1i8eden+y8TbMHsf1mntJL9pi10doCYgeI05+W7C8OKBpDg= =fr2U -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --s7Phbx9FmnjwMtIjmlJm2rPbssiQx47P4--
