Although 1.6.0 was only released 6 weeks ago, there have been 276 commits and 23 releases since then. It's therefore time to think about what needs to be done for 1.8. This is my personal list. Please follow up if you have other suggestions. Rich. * Implement guestfish --rw option / configuration file. http://libguestfs.org/guestfish.1.html#opening_disks_for_read_and_write * Alternate method to launch appliance through libvirt and connect to already running guests. (CC'd to Dan Berrange who had patches for this a while back) * Builds available for Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo, ArchLinux when 1.8 is released. If there are particular bugs that should be fixed for 1.8, then they should have "1.8" in the "Devel Whiteboard" field in Bugzilla.
