Hello Virt Tools Community

For the past 14-ish years this mailing list has served as a place for
accepting patches and having discussions for various virtualization
userspace projects that didn't justify their own dedicated mailing
list. Mostly this was virt-manager and virt-viewer, but also some
other smaller tools.

Unfortunately as a consequence of infrastructure changes, the
redhat.com Mailman service is scheduled to be decomissioned, and
in the very near future ($low weeks) will cease to be able to send /
receive mail for this list.

In recent years development for the virt-viewer and virt-manager projects
has largely shifted over to the git forges, via a combination of merge
requests for patch submission, and issues for bug/feature discussions.
The remaining traffic on this list isn't high enough to justify the setup
of new hosting for its continued usage.

With this in mind, when the redhat.com Mailman service ends, this mailing
list will be retired. For the sake of historical record, the archives will
be preserved.

As a reminder the primary project websites are:

    - https://libvirt.org
    - https://libguestfs.org
    - https://virt-manager.org
    - https://libosinfo.org

and their assocaited respositories

    - https://gitlab.com/libvirt
    - https://gitlab.com/libosinfo
    - https://github.com/virt-manager
    - https://gitlab.com/virt-viewer
    - https://github.com/libguestfs
    - https://gitlab.com/nbdkit

Note, not all of the above use a merge/pull request workflow. Check
the individual websites / repositories for guidance.

With regards,
Daniel
