RIP Bill! Sorry to hear about his death. And I enjoyed reading this paragraph

That put aside:
1. The Subject line says "libvirt" instead of "libxml2".
2. I have packaged and submitted libxml2-2.9.3 for Mageia Linux Cauldron. So it
should appear in its repositories soon. Seems like all of our downstream
patches were no longer necessary.
