7:38 a.m.
I'm pleased to announce the virt-tools.org website:
http://virt-tools.org/
The "virt tools" are an informal group of system administration tools
for small-scale Linux virtualization, including virt-manager,
virt-install, libvirt, virt-v2v, libguestfs, virt-df, virt-top and
more.
The virt tools website is an umbrella project to provide
documentation, tutorials, online help and roadmaps for these tools.
The website does *not* replace the existing upstream websites, but
hopes to complement those sites by providing documentation that
crosses tool boundaries and help to get started.
The site is open source and we welcome your contributions. Get the
git repository here:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=virt-tools.git
and send patches to the mailing list:
http://virt-tools.org/contact/#mailing-list
Rich.

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines. Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into Xen guests.

Good idea :-) , a couple of small issues though:
May I suggest to run it through the W3C Link Checker :-) ?
http://validator.w3.org/checklink/checklink?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fvirt-tools.o...
there is 2 broken links and it' would be best to point
to http://www.redhat.com/
I ran it because the second link I tried, to the learning page was 404
http://virt-tools.org/learning/install-with-command-line/
is that an error in the URL or is the content missing ATM ?
I'm also a bit surprized, the web site advertize the content as
XHTML 1.0 Strict in the DTD (it's shipping as text/html, but that's
classic) but the content is not following the DTD, maybe there are some
tricks needed to get Template Toolkit to generate valid documents, maybe
some constructs should be avoided...

complains a bit. On linux with libxml2 and xhtml1-dtds installed you can use
xmllint --valid --noout page.html
to find out if the documents are valid, it's more convenient (and
faster) than the validator.

It's better than I thought ...

Yes, there's still content missing, including that one.
I'm also a bit surprized, the web site advertize the content
as

TT doesn't care about HTML. It's just a text processor.
I declared it as Strict to turn off quirksmode in IE (probably old
IE6). The HTML itself is written by hand and isn't very strict ...
Having said that, we don't really care much about IE.

Ah, okay !

TT doesn't care about HTML. It's just a text processor.
Ah, okay, then the simplest is to do validation checking as a
postprocessing.
