Ewan,

Thank you so much for taking the blueprint I threw out on, and thank you all 
for making it happen. I'm eager to give it a whirl :)

Thanks,
Patrick

The hypervisor-vmware-vsphere-support blueprint merged yesterday, so Nova can 
now use VMware’s hypervisors on the compute nodes.  This brings the OpenStack 
compute options to seven: vSphere, XenServer/Xen Cloud Platform, Xen,  Hyper-V, 
KVM, QEMU, and UML.  LXC isn’t far behind, which will make eight.

I don’t normally go all Oscar Ceremony over a branch merge, but this was 5000 
lines of code and over 3 months of effort, so I thought that a few thank-yous 
were in order:

•         Neeraj Koul, Rochanglien Infimate and Sateesh Chodapuneedi for the 
code itself and for the automated QA systems.
•         Ravi Gururaj and Milind Barve for project requirements, management 
and sponsorship.
•         Armando Migliaccio and Salvatore Orlando for extensive peer review 
before we brought the branch to the community.
•         Jay Pipes, Rick Harris and Rick Clark for the multiple review phases 
after that.
•         Anne Gentle for assistance with documentation.
•         Søren Hansen for updating the Hudson environment at short notice to 
get the merge completed.
•         Thierry Carrez for release management and keeping us on track.

Thanks everyone,

Ewan.
