Hi Pekka,

Sorry for the delay, I've been away from email for a few days.

Thanks for doing this. Since it looks unlikely that kvmtool will ever be
merged back into the kernel tree, it makes sense to cut the dependency
in my opinion.
I am certainly OK with a standalone repository which preserves the 
history. Will, would you like to take over the proposed new repository 
and put it somewhere on git.kernel.org, perhaps?
Sure thing. I'll sync-up with Andre and reply back here when we've got
something sensible.

One extra point that I don't think has been mentioned in this thread so
far is that separating kvmtool from the kernel sources is likely a
prerequisite for distribution packaging. Once we've got something sorted
out, I'll poke some friendly local debian developers and see if they can't
package it up for us.
