So, since we're approaching 1.1, we should really discuss release

Agree strongly.
My expectation is that migration works from:
qemu-1.0 -M 1.0 => qemu-1.1 -M 1.1
Why do you expect that? Maybe you meant -M 1.0 at the end?
Sorry, I did mean -M 1.0.
qemu-1.1 -M 1.0<= qemu-1.1 -M 1.0
I would expect that migration works from:
qemu-0.15 -M 0.15 => qemu-1.1 -M 0.15
Ack.
I'm okay if this fails gracefully:
qemu-1.1 -M 0.15<= qemu-0.15 -M 0.15
RHEL has more stringent requirements (going back to its heavily patched
0.12). I think we should have the infrastructure that allow one to add
the hacks to make this work, even if we don't actually do the compat
work for the release (I think it's fine for qemu to support just one
version going back; and unreasonable to require it to go as far back as
RHEL).
This is reasonable to me.
