Most important for QEMU is easy building and testing, so let's focus on
that.
Ceph and GlusterFS have packages available in popular distros. This
allows us to hook them into QEMU's buildbot
(http://buildbot.b1-systems.de/qemu/grid) so their code does not bitrot.
Sheepdog's QEMU block driver has no external dependencies so it's even
easier to build.
I'd like to see packages for popular distros and a "Getting Started"
page for users instead of developers. Then I can follow the steps to
set up HLFS using the packages and the QEMU buildbot can build the HLFS
block driver.
