Sure :) By the way, I must apologise for not being more active; in fact
I am! It just doesn't show.
An LVM library would be a great idea. The first question here is
probably: make it part of libparted or develop it independently and let
libparted use it?
I'm for the former (libparted isn't that huge, and most systems
already have it installed), but perhaps someone will come up with sound
reasons for making it a small independent library.
