I don't now why but the list manager bounced and discarded the

As stated I'm fine taking over maintainance for the project

of activity and someone show commitment I will be fine handing
maintainance over :-)
Thank you Daniel very much for taking this responsibility. If you need
any kind of assistance, please don't hesitate to ask, I will be happy to
help whenever possible.
W.r.t. closing the list, I think we need a grace period to allow
people to express dissent if needed (the libvir-list has far more
traffic) and I will send a couple of reminders before closing if there
is no opposition.
Agreed, and I also think it is important to keep the achieves accessible
for historic reasons.
I guess the fist thing I will do is push the patch from Klaus
fixing the build with sblim-sfcb,
Indeed. I have a couple of pending patches that were not sent for review
which could be interesting to apply before rolling out the last release.
Sad news, but the show must go on. :)
Best Regards, Eduardo
feedback welcome !
