I am insterested in that because hypervisor type thing could make a lot
easier the management.

Right now we use the util vservers tools with a bunch of puppet and home
made script. I think basicaly everyone is using his home made tools to
make them work. With libvirt capability to manage the guest we can use
tools that have been developed and tied to greater parts like openstack
and such big thingy without loosing the most important part of the
virtualisation tech we love:

- KISS principle
- Efficiency
- tech guy based solution that focus on the core thing

that way all the fancy work is done by hypervisor management tool and we
can plug our vserver in those systems while vserver manage the internals
for our guests.

Perhaps the libvirt for LXC could be a good fondation for the part they
have in common with vserver (all the cgroup management part), don't know
if this is better to start from scratch or to build on top of it. the
real thing is that i really do not know how much work this can be. I
heard from previous discution that the network part was the issue that
came up the most has vserver isolate where all other virtualize this part.
