So a couple of things: * CloudStack (in its current form) won't build without libvirt-java. This means either: a. CloudStack declares libvirt-java to be a system requirement b. We break out KVM support and make it an optional/non-default part of the build Both of the above result in cloud-libvirt.jar being removed from the repo. Take a look at: http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html (I think we will become very well versed in this particular page over the next month or so) --David
