+1 We decided on a time-based release. Since OVM did not make it in time to make it a functional product, it should not make it.
I think this vote should have a better description. It is more a vote to say OVM did not make the 4.0 release. It is not to drop OVM. The source code is still there. People who needs to make it work can still make it work and help contribute it back. --Alex > -----Original Message----- > From: Chip Childers [mailto:chip.child...@sungard.com] > Sent: Friday, October 19, 2012 9:55 AM > To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org > Subject: [VOTE][ASFCS40] Drop OVM from the supported HV list for 4.0.0- > incubating release? > > Hi all, > > Following up on the OVM discussion thread [1], it appears that we don't have > a full consensus yet.
