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...

Virtual Machine Manager 0.1.5 release: msg#00052

Subject: Virtual Machine Manager 0.1.5 release
I've just pushed out another snapshot of the Virtual Machine Manager GUI
application for managing Xen machines via libvirt.

A summary of the changes in this 0.1.5 release[1]:

 * Integration with GNOME keyring for the VNC console to avoid
   need to remember passwords when accessing the guest domain's
   console
 * Use cairo to render a '50% alpha gray wash' over the screenshot
   to give appearance of a 'dimmed' display when paused. Also render
   the word 'paused' in big letters.
 * Initial cut of code for saving & restoring domain snapshots to disk
 * Added icons for buttons which were missing graphics
 * Miscellaneous RPM spec file fixes to comply with rpmlint
 * Update status icons to match those in the gnome-applet-vm
 * Added domain ID and # VCPUs to summary view
 * Misc bug fixes

The next priority target for development is some UI for creating new
VM instances (a GUI equivalent of xenguest-install.py script shipping
with current Fedora Xen packages) and implenenting the UI for editing
domain configuration / hardware.

In addition there is now a more permanent home for the application's
web pages:

  http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/index.html

And the Mercurial repository is now published for anonymous read-only
access at:

  http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virt-manager--devel

Patches are welcome either as traditional unified diffs, or as mercurial
changeset bundles - see the following page for details on exporting bundles
using hg:

  http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/scmrepo.html

Regards,
Dan.
