We should talk then - I did not want to commit to a specific branch 
b/c I wasn't sure which one the majority of the distors would want
to settle one.

There is a pretty good bug-fixed (thanks to Virtual Computer) and mostly
featured (blkback, netback, blktap2) branch that I was thinking to setup
and start upstreaming the pieces.
