[fedora-virt] ANNOUNCE: virt-manager 1.0.0 released
I'm happy to announce the release of virt-manager 1.0.0!
Our version numbers were starting to get awkward, and this release was
suitably featureful, so it felt like time to bump the major version. (And it's
trendy these days, right?).
virt-manager is a desktop application for managing KVM, Xen, and LXC
virtualization via libvirt.
The release can be downloaded from:
