consider offering them for inclusion in CentOS repos?

that would be quit cool. however, isnt there a problem with what runs on
what ver of KVM ? in that centos-5 does not run beyond a certain
release, whereas windows needs something else and opensolaris needs
something completely different. or have those issues been resolved now ?

<pre wrap="">Farkas's version is KVM-84, which is the latest, and I have that running here on a clean install of CentOS 5.2 with one W2008 guest. Call it anecdotal evidence.
As for what will run on that version:

"we only test with intel hosts and a dozens of guests, but this is the first series which seems to stable and really usable"
However, if that version goes into a repository and existing production installations do an update then they may get a KVM version that doesn't work for them. Or maybe it works but only after a config change. Is that the issue? Maybe it should go in the testing repository then.
