Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Libvir: a simple C virtualization control library: msg#00000

Subject: Libvir: a simple C virtualization control library
  This mail is to present a new project being started:

       Libvir: a simple C virtualization control library

 The libvir library is born from the need for a simpler userland C library to 
watch and control Xen domains. Among the design goal are:

   - being able to provide API and ABI guarantee
   - LGPL to be able to use it in a variety of contexts
   - pure C, minimizing dependancies
   - aiming at full documentation coverage

 A typical example of use case should be the applet displaying local Xen
domains status in Fedora Core desktop. 

 The current state is a small library to get informations and interract
with existing domains, the design is not frozen, though the existing code
should work as is, it is considered mostly as a way to bootstrap and seed
the project, we are seeking interest from others. The library could be
extended in various ways potentally supporting other virtualization
mechanisms like QEmu, allowing to start new domains, etc. as long as the
API is kept simple enough. 

 The project is hosted at :
      http://libvir.org/
API  http://libvir.org/html/libvir-libvir.html 

See the download page at http://libvir.org/downloads.html to get sources
or CVS checkout, and https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
for the mailing-list informations, which would be the best place to discuss
this for those interested in this project,

   yours,

Daniel
