Hi,

I'd like to add these topics for short discussion:

* VTi windows networking.  Windows has not driver for qemu network card.  
Either we should write a windows driver (--) or a new nic in qemu (++)

* GFW: because it is not open source, GFW won't be in Fedora (and maybe other 
distrib).  Should the ia64 communauty write using www.tianocore.org ? (hot 
topic!)

Tristan.
