Hi Marcel,

I went through above branch. There are place-holder files containing
stub functions defined for qcow, vhd, vmdk image format support. I
would like to work on supporting qcow image format. It would be nice
if you could push your latest changes to the branch. That would be
helpful to get me started.

Thanks in advance.
