Live merge still scheduled for 3.5?

Hi, This feature page: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Live_Merge Says the Live merge feature is targeting 3.5 (and has not been updated since April). But this 3.5 tracking spreadsheet: http://bit.ly/17qBn6F linked from this page: https://www.ovirt.org/OVirt_3.5_release-management makes no mention of it. So, is Live merge still slated for 3.5 and looking good for release? Or should the feature page be updated? It will be nice to be able to delete a snapshot while the VM is running, particularly since snapshot deletion takes soooo looong. :) -Bob

Yes, thought more work is needed: Bug 1124970 - Merge upstream live merge fixes into 3.5 branch
Or should the feature page be updated?

Adam, could you update the documentation?

Please see line 56 of the 3.5 planning tab.

Greg, could you please take a pass at the feature page to update from an engine perspective as well? There have been a lot of changes since my initial April writeup. -- Adam Litke

Adam - Sure, I added some details about the engine changes to the page. Bob - As Adam said, the project is still a work-in-progress but the bulk of the changes are in. I checked out the link you sent and found the project at (currently) line 56 of the "3.5 planning" tab. It's colored green, so don't worry. :) Best, Greg

Yes I saw that. Pretty sure somebody has added it but it's possible I somehow missed it before. Thanks for the update, folks! Great work, per usual. Can't wait. -Bob
