And if Michael Tokarev is who I tihnk he is, he has been very much encouraged on #debian-devel to pursue maintainership of kvm. I'm not personally a user of kvm (yet?), but I do feel perfectly safe with Michael as kvm maintainer. I even think it will be a very big improvement. If just half the clue he shows in #debian-devel is 'not faking', I will be very pleased to see a increased involvement of Michael in Debian. /Sune -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
