Well I don't think Kimchi is a solution to the problem Bob mentioned.
What you want (and what you get at Vmware btw) is _one_ solution to start on a single node (laptop or server, whatever) and which is able to scale to manage 100 Hosts or a complete data center.
I doubt kimchi can do this. oVirt could be tweaked to do this.
Other thoughts?

Hi Sven, Referring to Bob's mail, he mentioned people with little resources, and also a development use case- "running VMware vSphere, with a hosted vCenter, to use as a development VM testbed." These are valid cases for Kimchi, where all you want to do is simply run a VM. If you want to be able scale up to 100 hosts or more, you can definitely start with 2 hosts, which is the hosted engine use case. The reason why I mention it, is that additional hosts will require proper network and storage configuration, which basically mean you want to plan ahead even when you begin with a modest deployment of 2 hosts. I do not think a single-host use case is technically impossible, but we need to understand a VM may die, and in a single host setup this may have additional implications. So why get into troubles instead of planning your way or using the right tool for the task. Just imagine using a 5.4 Kg hammer to hang a picture frame on the wall. Doron
