Interesting. When did it fall into that status?
The Maintainers file shows Fabrice as the maintainer of kqemu. I suppose that
needs to be updated?
I see Fabrice released 1.4.0pre1 on May 30th, 2008, although I never did see
anything declaring it unsupported (I'm not suggesting it was never declared,
just that I never saw any such declaration).
Are there any plans to support it in the future? This really is quite a shock
to me, actually. I know qemu has a wide range of uses - but for me and surely
others, virtualization is a primary use. To the best of my knowledge, kvm
requires hardware support - where does this leave the class of users who need
virtualization & don't have hardware virtualization support? Are we no longer
the a target audience of qemu? If not, fine, but apparently a statement needs
to be made...
Also, I had considered the web site at http://bellard.org/qemu/ to be
accurate. Perhaps something should be done prior to a release so that those
who browse to the site know that:
1 - the site is not an accurate source of information
or
2 - kqemu is no longer supported or maintained
Thanks
