Pierre, I'd be happy with that. Tristan allocated the numbers as "XVP", so do people think we should keep this as an abbreviation, i.e. refer to it as "XVP (virtual machine control) ...", or banish the letters "XVP" completely? Personally, I'd vote to keep the "XVP", just for consistency with RealVNC's document, and so one can refer to the "XVP extensions to RFB", which is more concise than "virtual machine control extensions to RFB".

Having something that sounds Xen-specific, even if it isn't, doesn't help adoption IMO. So my vote is "Virtual Machine Control ..." so that it's clear what this extension does even from just the name.
