  In the interest of wrapping this up, and in attempt to follow

http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/message.jspa?messageID=7336#7336

  (being unable to find the message it cites, although I recall it...)
  I want to get:

  - at least one CAB member to issue a +1,

  - a verification that the proposed community's leads and the Zones
    community leads were not able to share the Zones community with the
    union of those sets of leads, and

  - that investigation of an umbrella Virtualization community is not
    being pursued in the near term.

  As a side note, we'll have Projects hosting support in a few weeks or
  less, so technical efforts that want to start smaller can do so
  without seeking wider approval.
