My interest is in a roadmap for getting to a point where we have
ability to configure QEMU VMs in a "legacy free" way. By this I
mean
- 100% of configuration is driven by QAPI defined schemas
- HMP and QemuOpts are banished/untangled from internals of
QEMU, such that they are just a shim around the canonical
QAPI and could even be done as a separate wrapper process
- May or may not involve qemu-system-XXX vs a new "qemu-vm" binary
- May or may not involve QMP vs a REST API taking QAPI JSON vs
something else.

Are you suggesting a 1-off meeting or a regular meeting, or an adhoc
set of meetings ?

Daniel
