Hi Nir, Thanks alot for the quick response and information, actually I also worked a little bit on libvirt and other from our team has experiences in qemu, those projects works OK on ARM platform, it is just the capability might be less when comparing to other platforms, for example, myself just added the getHost() capability for ARM64 in libvirt and now planning to work on compareCPU() API, after that we will have better migration workflow on ARM platform. For resources, actually, yes, I think we can provide those for oVirt community, could you tell me more details about what kind of resources are more suitable, our current resources are mostly VMs from public cloud, will that be OK?

We have a small team here and we are willing to also help to make this work. Hi Zhenyu, I think this is a great idea, both supporting more hardware, and enlarging the oVirt community. Regarding hardware support we depend mostly on libvirt and qemu, and I don't know that is the status. Adding relevant lists and people.
