1. A VM appliance to do backups using the backup APIs or add this
functionality in engine

I'd rather see integrated with backup solutions to tackle this (hopefully, there are relevant open source ones as well)

Do you know if there is a 3rd party that has started work on this?

2. engine to create and maintain gluster geo-replication

sahina - thoughts?

3. freeBSD as supported guest and guest agent for it

adam - where are we with getting freebsd added as guest?
http://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/22273/
Liviu - note it is just a config file (other than the icon).

vinzenz - i don't remember anyone volunteered to test and package the guest agent on freebsd?
(liviu - maybe you can try to tackle that?)

I can surely test the agent and I can try give it a go to package agent for 8.3(if no one else did this before) as I'm interested in pfsense on ovirt

Regards
Liviu
