Hi Roy, I reported a bug (953839). If it would be considered as worth to fix I can provide some help. I haven't introduce jet to the oVirt community. So I'm software engineer in the Polish Research and Academic Computer Network. Mainly I'm Java EE developer. We use oVirt to manage our development and testing environments. I'm very enthusiastic about oVirt project.

PS sorry for my English. I try to do my best ;-) Best regards, Piotr _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
