I am self-sponsoring the following case and marking it as
"closed approved automatic". It only adds consolidation private
interfaces and they have been reviewed by the Crossbow team.
The motivation for documenting these interfaces is
because VirtualBox will be using them along with other
MAC client API. I will send the contract
to be signed once it is ready.
The Release Binding is Minor.
Thanks,
-Krishna
