Ah, I had two days ago, I believe there still were some free at
that point - will check again - or see if I can arrange for an
informal publike session somewhere.

Thanks, Chris - I know I was told this before, but seem to have
forgotten - is that todo list up and available for the community
to help out on? Also, would it make sense to have a high-level
common todo list across all the virtualization approaches
in addition?  I'll try and get Rusty's todo list up and out
on a Wiki page, too, with some info on what he's been trying
to accomplish.


thanks,
Nivedita
