Hi everyone What do you think of creating a new 'virtualization' project or herd/team?
My initial motivation for this idea was that while libvirt is being maintained by 'xen', it is not xen-specific anymore but also supports kvm, qemu, lxc and openvz. It would also make sense for other parts like the network setup (which is pretty equal for xen, kvm, qemu and virtualbox: tun/tap combined with a bridge or with routing & masquerading). The idea is to collect the following package-"families": - xen - kvm - virtualbox - vmware - qemu - libvirt and eventually also the following: - vserver - openvz >From my perspective it'd make sense to create a project in which we can also provide documentation (currently maintained by the docs project), a roadmap, comparison charts, etc. So, what do you think? Cheers, Tiziano ps It has been suggested to post this on -dev since it's about herds and therefore about maintaining ebuilds. -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
