Subject: [virtio] CORRECTION: 15-day Public Review for Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) Version 1.0 - ends January 26th


In last nights announcement of the public review for Virtual I/O Device
(VIRTIO) Version 1.0, I stated that "This public review draft makes changes
to Committee Specification 03. The changes are tracking in the red-line
file at
http://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.0/cs03/virtio-v1.0-cs03-diff.html.";
The correction location for the red-line file is
http://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.0/csprd05/virtio-v1.0-csprd05-diff.html.
My apologies to all for the error.

Best,
