For the record, I don't think upstream development should depend on
when distros decided to upgrade packages and their release cycles. The
important thing is for us to give them enough time and IMO 1 year is
plenty of time. Also keeping in mind that it makes very little sense
to upgrade libvirt-glib and not libvirt since libvirt doesn't break
any ABI/API.

Well we don't agree and that's why I brought it up here. :)
