  Thanks :-)

  hum ... I didn't understood until I read the associated code. Fine !

  Well, if you add new .py file i would expect the Makefile.am to
be modified too

Thinking out loud, maybe we should allow dom to be NULL/None in
examples, if we extend the API later to add node related events dom
would be NULL, isn't it ?

  ideally for regression testing it would be nice to be able to provide
a test driver definition, but augmented with an emulated scenario,
things like:
      <scenario>
        <event type="start">
            <domain type='test2'>
              <name>test2</name>
              <memory>512000</memory>
              <currentMemory>512000</currentMemory>
              <vcpu>2</vcpu>
              <os>
                <type arch='i686'>hvm</type>
                <boot dev='hd'/>
              </os>
            </domain>
        </event>
        <event type="pause">
          <domain name="test"/>
        </event>
        <event type="resume">
          <domain name="test"/>
        </event>
        <event type="destroy">
          <domain name="test2"/>
        </event>
      </scenario>

  Ah, now I understand the principle ... sure !
Well you managed to find your way though the generator, congrats :-)

  That's where things starts to get a bit nasty

  you're gonna open it on every event registration ? Sure the ImportModule
does caching IIRC but that sounds a bit extreme. Maybe add an
initialization funtion in libvir.py so that this get resolved only once
don't you think so ?

  case for a NULL domain and pushing Py_None then would make sense IMHO

  We should make clear that the python callback can't keep any reference
to the domain.
  Maybe the solution is to pass a name or UUID string and let the python
user do the lookup, might also avoid the object duplication (but then
the user will do the dictionary of domains and get into the same
problems of object lifetime).... I hate asynch interfaces :-)

  hum, maybe the ParseTuple should be done before onto temporary
variables and then only DECREF, right now if the parse fails, then
the next event may lead to a crash due to garbage collected code :-)

  the include extension is a nice idea. Maybe  comments should be
automatically added at the beginning and end of included fragment

  seems there is a few trailing spaces or tabs at end of line
in that module but i see them :-)

  A bit of feedback on those comments ? i think we are not far from
