I'm not in favor of non kvm activities too. At least for this year.

oVirt needs the focus. In theory it can do it all - kvm, xen, containers, cloud, etc. But in practice it would be the best for us to focus of being as good as we can in a more narrow, realistic field. The current field is enterprise virtualization using kvm. IMHO that's the right one and there is plenty of work to do around it. Spreading around will slow down the main effort (even if others do the work). Potentially in a year time we may re-evaluate things. > > Er, would we?
