What (hopefully) works
----------------------

Read a guest description from a libvirt xml file.

Automatic snapshot creation and corresponding guest metadata rewrite.

Detection of virtio capable kernel.
  Installation of new kernel if appropriate
  Rebuild of mkinitrd

Configuration of virtio drivers.

Example command-line:

./v2v/run-v2v-locally --with rhel.5.i386.kernel=/home/mbooth/kernel-2.6.18-128.1.14.el5.i686.rpm /media/passport/RHEL52PV32-20090213.xml foo

Required features not yet implemented
-------------------------------------

Completion of metadata rewrite
  Xen specific metadata is identified, but not changed
  Rewrite of storage metadata to use virtio

Remap drive names in a guest
  This is mostly done, just needs to be stuck into HVTarget::Linux somewhere

Automatic configuration of a new guest via libvirt

Get guest metadata direct from libvirt (libvirt MetadataReader)

Network/Bridge mapping for libvirtxml reader

POD everywhere

Windows support

Important features not yet implemented

In-place storage module

Data copy storage module

OVF metadata reader
