[Libguestfs] Plan for libguestfs 1.38

[Richard W.M. Jones]

Libguestfs 1.36 was released on 2017-02-28, which is more than 8
months ago.  We aim for approximately 6 month release cycles, so it's
overdue.  I'd would like to think about what needs work for the next
stable 1.38 release, which might happen in early December.

Any new APIs added in the 1.37 cycle will become supported and
guaranteed when we release 1.38, so we need to check those.

I would like to see Cédric's virt-builder-repository upstream before
1.38 too.  It's next on my list to review.

Please follow-up also if there are features / blockers / bugs that
need to be addressed for 1.38.

As usual, bugs which have "1.38" (without quotes) in the "Devel
Whiteboard" field in Bugzilla are nominated as blockers for the
release.  You can see a list of those here (currently empty):
