+ The qemu hypervisor dirver now allows taking full disk backups via the
+ ``virDomainBackupBegin`` API and the corresponding virsh wrapper.

+ In future releases the feature will be extended to also support incremental
+ backups (where only the difference since the last backup is copied) when
+ qemu adds the required functionality.
