Could you provide a reasoning that isn't based on opinion? Based on the WS PRD
and other wiki pages virtualization isn't covered by "providing a platform for
development of various types of applications."
I also would bet hard cash that outside a subset of Red Hat customers that use
libvirt, most people will not use libvirt. Let's drop the FOSS bias and face
reality. No offense to the individuals who work on it. If libvirt and it's
substantial baggage was dropped it would open up room for docs (GTK2+GTK3 docs
are only ~2.5MB each xz compressed) or other packages more valuable to the WS
product's mission.
