Description Laura Novich 2012-01-09 09:57:58 UTC
Description of problem:
On page 10 of the PDF, there is a list of items separated by bullets.
The text within the first two bullets are clauses, not sentences and therefore should not be punctuated. The third one is a clause as well, which makes a problem in that the sentence that follows is a sentence.  I suggest re-writing the last bullet or making the last sentence a separate bullet.

Additional info:
Libvirt provides:
• A common, generic and stable layer to securely manage virtualized guests on a host
• A common interface for managing local systems and networked hosts
• All of the APIs required to provision, create, modify, monitor, control, migrate and stop virtualized guests if the hypervisor supports these operations. Although multiple hosts may be accessed with libvirt simultaneously, the APIs are limited to single node operations.

same issue also is on page 11 and 12.
page 11 section 4.3 - remove periods from bullet statements, as they are clauses
page 11 section 4.3.1 - same 
page 12 both sets of bullets - remove periods
