No offence, but maybe sending people to the right place is a good idea.
 SPICE is related to both KVM and QEMU, but it's still not the same
thing.  Same same but different, kind of.  So may I recommend one of
these lists instead?

* KVM mailing lists and IRC channels
http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Lists%2C_IRC

* QEMU mailing lists
http://wiki.qemu.org/MailingLists

Yeah, I can understand that though ... asking about things in the wrong
list can also cause such issues.
