Hello all,

PR #1387 is complete, meaning all the new test providers and provider libraries are complete per comments made during the RFC stage:

https://github.com/autotest/virt-test/pull/1387

As much as I'd like to accomodate all bugfixes and changes before this split can be done, rebasing this PR over and over will likely be a nightmare. So we'll have to stop taking PRs and get 1387 merged.

The spec for test providers changed slightly, and I'm writing the '1.0 spec' for it in the virt-wiki. Please be aware:

* There is a non zero possibility that some of the patches applied to virt-test might be lost in the test providers. I'll re-create the tp repos so this doesn't happen, but keep this possibility in mind.

* Many of the currently open PRs will have to be re-written in the new tp repos:

https://github.com/autotest/tp-libvirt
https://github.com/autotest/tp-qemu

* The test providers become new projects with new head maintainers:

tp-qemu: Jiri Zupka, Yiqiao Pu and Lukas Doktor
tp-libvirt: Chris Evich, Yu Mingfei, Yang Dongsheng

We're starting a new period for virt-test, and as you know, the very beginning of new periods have quirks to be fixed. But I'm confident we can do it.

Cheers,

Lucas
