This isn't intended to be a political decision; it's our joint technical opinion on the best design for this API. Since we all happened to be in one physical location the other week it was a good opportunity for us to work through how we thought the API should look from a technical perspective. At that point it seemed to us to be clearer to write up the results of that discussion as a single patch to the API documentation, rather than doing it by (for instance) making lots of different review comments on your patches. Christoffer's API documentation patch is a patch like any other and it has to go through review. If there are parts where you don't understand the rationale or you think we got something wrong you should let us know. thanks -- PMM -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
