Yes, all good suggestions. FYI this text from my blog is copied into the libvirt-go-xml docs if you fancy sending a fix for these: https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-go-xml.git;a=blob;f=doc.go;hb=HEAD > Second is > <https://www.berrange.com/posts/2017/01/26/announce-new-libvirt-console-proxy-project/>: > Do you (or someone else) still work on libvirt-console-proxy?

Thank you for your patches, I've applied them all, and also added support for "go mod" to replace the deprecated glide tool. It is best to consider the project dormant right now. As you can see from the git history I've not done any work on it for a while. I still think its a conceptually useful thing to have but it needs someone with time & motiviation to take it forward.
