Hi, I have recently been looking into virt-v2v, and noticed the mention of an upcoming rewrite in a few places. Is there a roadmap or post someplace that describes the future of this project? I've got a couple of patches against the current code base, and am wondering if they will still be considered for inclusion. Thanks, Mike

Post patches on this mailing list. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines. Boot with a live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into KVM guests. http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v

Thanks for the pointer.> Matt - can you push your latest commits, or is there a more canonical > repo that Mike can look at?The last changes in the repo seem to be from back in June. Is guestconv expected to completely replace virt-v2v in RHEL7?> > I've got a couple of patches against the current code base, and am > > wondering if they will still be considered for inclusion. > > Yes, for virt-v2v (or guestconv if you want too). Post patches on > this mailing list.Great. I've got some code which adds support for openSUSE/SLES into virt-v2v (based on the RedHat.pm converter). Along the way, I ran into a couple of small issues which affect RHEL as well. I'll post those changes here for review, and possibly begin a discussion surrounding the SUSE side of things. Thanks, Mike
