IBM is willing to share some/most of our time for QEMU-PPC maintenance. What we are going do will depend on inputs really. We have pseries and KVM in focus because there is still business using the software stack. TCG is extremely useful for pseries and powernv. We clearly want to keep that running and improve it. Some parts have been barely touched (and probably used) in the last 15 years. I think we should drop some support to modernize the useful parts and ease maintenance. Thanks, C.
