Great!

Just compiled and run 0.8.7 for he first time, few minutes ago.

- That "bug" (know it isn't but don't know the right word to define it) that
opens all VMs when you connect to a hypervisor is gone.
- Now I can change the bridge where a virtual NIC ir tied without deleting
the nic and creating a new one. =p

Thank you ^^
