But definitely an exciting feature idea. I don't know how you're usually handling those sort of things, but in LibreOffice project we have just created a GenialIdeas page for ideas lacking mentors, or a slightly too big for GSoc... so that interested people can pick it later. On a mailing list, that idea is likely to be lost sooner or later ;) -- Cedric -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list

I'm assuming you would contribute as a student rather than a mentor, since I am not familiar with contributions from you to either libvirt or QEMU. In that case, do not worry. The page is only listing project ideas from the mentors, and it is certainly possible for student to propose their own projects. This has already happened in the past.
