So I don't think that last sentence adds anything, and can be dropped. I think this works, although it's the first instance of having two top-level Since: tags on a single JSON entity. I was envisioning: @xbzrle: yadda... pages @auto-convert: Migration supports... convergence (since 1.6) Since: 1.2 to match the conventions elsewhere that the overall JSON entity (the enum MigrationCapability) exists since 1.2, but the addition of auto-convert happened in 1.6. However, as nothing parses the .json file to turn it into formal docs (yet), I'm not going to insist on a respin if this is the only problem with your patch. I'm not comfortable enough with my skills in reviewing the rest of the patch, or I'd offer a reviewed-by. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
