+      <p>Libvirt is a virtualization library providing a common API for
+	various hypervisors (Qemu/KVM, Xen, LXC, and others), and also a
+	popular library used by a number of projects.  Libvirt 1.2.2,
+	released on March, 2014, was the first release to include bhyve
+	support.  Enabling bhyve support allows consumers to use bhyve
+	in libvirt-ready applications without major efforts.</p>
+
+      <p>Currently, libvirt supports almost all essential features of
+	bhyve, such as Virtual Machince lifecycle (start, stop), bridged
+	networking, and virtio/SATA driver support.  The work continues
+	to implement more API calls and to cover more of features
+	offered by bhyve.</p>
