Hi Enrico,
We (Linaro's Project Stratos
https://linaro.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/STR/overview)
are interested in this stuff. I was trying to look at the last status
of all this. Few
questions for you:
- Was the spec ever posted to virtio-dev list ? I thought that's the
very first step before
we merge the code.
- Any follow up on this patchset ?
Thanks. I will be happy to help otherwise and have cycles to work on
this if you need my help.

I had posted some spec quite some time ago, but it wasn't in the form
of patches against the .tex documentation files yet. It's been laying
aside for quite a while, since I've been busy w/ other things.

Will you be fine if I take that up and restart the thread ?

It's been a while - why not right?

Yeah, we went past that and here is the last version I posted.
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202106/msg00033.html
which I took back later on to let Enrico do it, as he wanted to.
And here is the last version from Enrico:
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202106/msg00048.html
Lets see how this goes in coming days.
