[Kimchi-users] Wok 2.5 and Kimchi 2.5 are now released!

[WK]

Excellent,

Just back from holiday and saw this.

I'll try an install on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and report back.

I'll also try an upgrade on U16 LTS from 2.4 to 2.5

In the meantime, who/what org does the publicity for this project?

It seems to be the big secret of medium scale virtualization (i.e. those 
projects that have outgrown VirtBox or even virt-manager)

I just turned another friend at another facility onto it.

He had first struggled with OpenStack (which blew his mind at the 
complexity of all the components), then he had some success with oVirt 
but found it still a little wonky (and oVirt is always bleeding edge, 
RHEV is the stable, but spendy).

He is thrilled with Kimchi after it just installed via packages and 
worked on the first try connecting to his NFS storage cluster.
