A new release of libvirt-cim is now available at:  ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt-cim/


* Features:
 - Basic network pool creation and deletion
 - Basic storage pool creation and deletion (directory pools only)
 - Storage volumes in a pool represented as template ResourceAllocationSettingData
 - Advertise profiles via SLP

* Bug fixes:
 - Improved reporting: libvirt error is now included in error message returned to the user
 - ElementConformsToProfile association now supports the RegisteredProfile <--> AllocationCapabilities
 - Prevent seg fault in get_typed_class() by returning is a NULL value is specified for refcn
 - Fix xmlgen so XML isn't generated for devices with an UNKNOWN device type
 - Set the device type of a resource to UNKNOWN after the call to detach_device(), otherwise detach_device() doesn't know what device type to handle
 - Allow user to specify guest's emulator and expose emulator via the guest's VirtualSystemSettingData
 - Improve randomization of MAC generation
 - Determine whether the host system supports KVM or QEMU guests.  If KVM support is available, create a KVM guest.  Otherwise, create a QEMU guest.
 - Fix some connection leaks and some libvirt pointer leaks
 - Be sure to specify the root/virt namespace (instead of root/interop) in ElementConformsToProfile when building the instance of HostSystem
