It does. Thank you.

My lofty idea is to create a Linux project that uses KVM to host
individual service instances. For example, having a mail instance, a
http server instance, and so forth. I hope to use FUSE to bound the
file systems where appropriate. The idea needs alot of  work. It is
similar to jailed environment, but I want something more than a simple
jail.

The initial goals are to 1) replace VMware, 2) steer clear of SELinux
and 3) stay small and conceptually simple.

Cheers,
