The current plan is to rebase libguestfs in RHEL 6.3:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=719879
I would like to get as many features from upstream libguestfs into
this as possible, but also make sure they have been well-tested by
Fedora users. Also there are some new tools arriving in libguestfs
upstream in the current development branch (1.13.x):
- virt-alignment-scan
http://libguestfs.org/virt-alignment-scan.1.html
- virt-sparsify
http://libguestfs.org/virt-sparsify.1.html
- A tool (or tools) to replace virt-clone
https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2011/05/11/virt-tools-survey-virt-clone/
So this is my plan, assuming no one has any strong objections:
(1) Continue development of the new virt tools in libguestfs for the
rest of this month.
(2) Release 1.14.0 new stable branch around the end of this month (Oct'11)
Today is absolutely the last day for any features or fixes that need
to go into 1.14.
This is the list of new APIs which will become official and stable, so
any problems with these, please say so now ...
