John Carr commented on LIBCLOUD-277:
------------------------------------

https://github.com/apache/libcloud/pull/82

I'm very familiar with libvirt from implementing the libvirt support in 
buildbot. I can try and help improve the driver, but I think their abstraction 
gets in the way of the abstraction we are trying to make and it may never be as 
good as a proper driver. The main trouble I would imagine comes from getting 
the IP address of a created node? And possibly some complexity around creating 
clones of base images? (Though looks like that has come a long way in the past 
year or so).
