https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/kvm-block-migration and, please check the full specification page too. http://etherpad.openstack.org/kvm-block-migration BTW, who is the appropriate person as the approver? Also, I'm wondering which milestone target we should shoot for.. diablo-1 or diablo-2?
