Hi Chet, I noticed that the latest versions: http://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.0/virtio-v1.0.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.0/virtio-v1.0.pdf Have been replaced with the csprd05 version as well. This seems to confuse people: they arrive at the latest version link, see that it's a draft, and assume that no final deliverable has been created yet. I think that virtio-1.0 should point at CS03, don't you agree? On Tue, Jan 12, 2016 at 09:49:01AM -0500, Chet Ensign wrote:
