Given the recent discussions, this seems the way we are going to take:
ovirt-3.5 would keep support of el6 as long as it (ovirt-3.5) is
maintained.

ovirt-3.6 (current master) would no longer support el6 for the
hypervisor. Vdsm would not be tested on el6, it won't build there, and
most probably not run properly/at all on el6.

If someone thinks that this is a wrong step to take - say so now, or be
silent forever.

Dan.
