I was thinking of votes in term of VDSM, the Admin REST API. or we want
to add a reporting API etc. not the contents, just which team drives it,
and that it is an agreed point we 'support' with some or other ABI.
We should define that out a bit more.
I was trying to understand how something like QEMU would fit into oVirt.
Since this requires that the each project consumes or provides a
supported API, QEMU exposes an API that it supports (QMP), but it's not
published through oVirt (or would it be?). oVirt Engine consumes it via
a very indirect path (through VDSM, then through libvirt, and then QMP).
I don't think Apache has any real requirement that projects under
Apache.org integrates with apache directly, right? Maybe it would be
best if we avoided being overly specific here.
How does Eclipse handle this?
