Hello Osier,
first of all I have to apologise for answering so late, had some difficulties
with my mail mailbox for libvirt and lost the data until the 18th. This is
from the luckily forgotton old subscription-account.

Sounds interesting.  What does "neatless" mean by the way? :)
Neatless is in the sense, that the interface is almost the same for all supported
hypervisors. This is for example:

->ctys -t qemu -a create=l:tst100 myUser@myHost
creates a QEMU instance
->ctys -t vmw -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a VMware instance, one of: Sever/Player/Workstation
->ctys -t vnc -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a VNC desktop
->ctys -t x11 -a create=l:tst101 myUser@myHost1
creates a X-Terminal session
...

There are some more options, but the core-set is quite similar.
This has the advantage for presenting a small interface with some standard
methods and a superset of common attributes.

When now a generic option has to be applied, this is the same for all hypervisors,
which I call here session types.

For example: The client of a session should be requested to be executed locally,
whereas the server is performing remote:

->ctys -t qemu -a create=l:tst100 -L CF myUser@myHost
creates a QEMU instance on 'myHost', creates a SSH tunnel from localhost
to the QEMU instance, where the display ID is managed automatically, and
last starts a local VNC client which is attached to the local stub of the SSH
tunnel.

Antyhing is done automatically, just by setting '-L CF', where CF stands for
CONNECTIONFORWARDING, in distinction to DISPLAYFORWARING, which is
similar to the X11 display forwarding.

->ctys -t vnc -a create=l:tst101 -L CF myUser@myHost1
This does basically the same, but starts and interconnects here a VNC desktop
instead of a QEMU instance.

Same for VMW, XEN and VirtualBox, where just the consoles has to be varied,
e.g. for VirtualBox the RDP, or VBOX instead of VNC.

Thus the main emphasis for the project is still the support of an interface, which
is almost the same - standard core - for all supported session types.
With some specific superset for each, providing enhanced features.

There are some slides on the home page which depict the interface, I tried
to describe the basic idea of service-management and composition also in a
short whitepaper.

  http://www.UnifiedSessionsManager.org

Just tried that, and it seem to want to bounce me to some other domain
(hard to make out) like unifiedsessionsmanager.eu or something, which
doesn't load.

Is everything set up ok? :/
Yes, I have one domain-only for the org, and redirect this to the server provider,
which provide their own, here e.g. unifiedsessionsmanager.eu for english,
unifiedsessionsmanager.de for german. For transparency I didn't rename the
domain name, just kept and forwarded it.

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

yep, can't connect.

It should work, the site is just simple HTML, no scripting.
The only extra is the URL-forwarding from the domain provider
to the webspace provider,  should be harmless.

I have no difficulties from Munich, neither by telco, nor by cable provider.
Let me please know when still not functional.

Regards and best wishes,
