Sorry from me too, but I planned to merge the admin API earlier so we
can finish the design of first APIs. Unfortunately, everything got
prolonged and we're right before the freeze with only Open and Close
APIs. And because I really dislike when we create APIs that return
"unsupported" just so we have them in, I'd be in favour for rather
adding one useful API instead of 5 non-working ones. The other option
is to conditionally disable the code for Admin API just for the
release and bump the minor version for the next release when we have
some useful stuff in.
I'd probably vote for just disabling the build of the libvirt-admin.so
library, instead of rushing to add an API. Of course that'd make our
version number bump amuzing, but I don't particular worry about that
as honestly the numbers are fairly meaningless anyway ;-)

Daniel
