Hi, There was a talk about new developments in VDEplug at FOSDEM 2017. The QEMU slirp code has been extracted into a library: https://fosdem.org/2017/schedule/event/iaas_modvde/
QEMU's slirp code does not have many contributors. Other projects using slirp are probably in this situation too. Spinning the QEMU slirp code out into an external library seems like a good idea because it could help focus on new developments like IPv6 support and ease the maintenance burden. I'm proposing this topic for discussion because there might be common ground for Samuel from QEMU and the VDE folks to collaborate. Samuel: Should QEMU join forces with libslirp? If you would like to speak rather than email, QEMU has a developer conference call on Tuesday 14th of February at 13:00-14:00 UTC. The agenda is open for topics and it would be a good forum to share ideas on slirp code maintenance and future direction. All that's required is an email to Juan Quintela <quint...@redhat.com> and he can schedule the call and provide dial-in details. Stefan
