[Qemu-devel] KVM call minutes for November 29

[Juan Quintela]

Plans for 1.0
- rc4 should be the last release
- should ship 1.0 on Thrusday

Merge window start on Monday

How to handle stable tree, getting a stable team?
- Justin: he don't do schedules for releases because it depends on when patches 
arrive.
- Adding a list for stable patches instead of more maintainers?

Next release?
- 6 month long also?  Anthony: discuss it next week
  * think about it, and do proposals for next week call

Update on QOM
- Dynamic propierties for qdev
- change types on qdev without touching all the tree several times

Test infraestructure
- Using a mini-os as an external process to be able to use libc and things like 
that.

Sandboxing and other languages
- sandboxing difficult
- embedding a language (python?), that would make doing the easy
  devices emulation really easy

How to do high level stuff?
- python?

Maintainer not responsive:
- MIPS as an example, what to do.
- In the specific case of MIPS, we haven't had a maintaner since Thiemo
- If you feel that a subsystem is not being maintained, just make
  noise on the list

See you next week.
