Has anyone done any correlation between VMware and z/VM?
I mean ... concepts.   We had a list some time back,  FREEVM-L,
where we discussed a spec  (no code,  just the high-level stuff)
for a common hypervisor design.

Some things are common between z/VM and VMware.
Many things are unique.   I'd like the common things to be
revealed and discussed,  especially w/r/t guest operatinng systems
like Linux.   Imagine if Linux-on-VMware and Linux-on-VM had
some common interface options!   As it is,  there is less in common
between the VMware tools and the z/VM interface than I would like.
(Not assigning blame;  just stating fact.)

Imagine if Linux-on-VMware could do something like

        hcp attach cdrom [to] guest37 cdrom

So the question is,  have any in the group written down anything
that they could share with the public?
