I'm looking at ways to upload/download to/from a datastore. I see it is on the todo roadmap wiki (
http://libvirt.org/todo.html) and also on bugzilla at
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=636130. It looks to be a low priority item, so I was thinking about writing my own patch for this when I ran across this thread
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.libvirt/35532. It looks like a patch going through discussion/revision for a variety of operations (e.g., vol-upload) to do exactly what I need. Does anyone have more info on the status of this patch (or the "todo" feature in general) and when it may be accepted into the baseline? I've been checking the hourly snapshots but haven't seen it show up yet.
