For wheezy I think it would be possible to maintain libvirt. Especially if we don't support all hypervisors in Wheezy. I could probably set aside the extra time given enough advanced notice when the LTS team takes over Wheezy. Should we decide to support e.g. KVM via backports this would change the picture since there are usually always changes needed for e.g. newer qemu-kvm versions, some of them being very intrusive. For qemu/qemu-kvm I'm not so sure given the large amount of dependencies and code changes between versions. It would be great to hear what Michael things about this. Cheers, -- Guido
