from your question I understand that you are currently using ovirt 3.2.1 rather 
than master [to answer Itamar's question from the previous e-mail], and that explains 
the slowness of the portals on IE8 that you are experiencing.

Please note that on oVirt master, the performance improvement patches for IE8 affect 
only the user portal; unfortunately, the admin portal still suffers from performance 
problems on IE8.

with regards to the master release accessibility: I am not sure if we have a master 
release; you can build oVirt-engine directly from the code-repo by following the 
instructions in the following wiki-page: http://www.ovirt.org/Build_and_Install_Engine_RPM

@Itamar/others: do we have some kind of a nightly/weekly/occasionally repository of 
ovirt builds/rpms? the IE8 performance patches were introduced to oVirt master on March 1 
(almost 2 months ago), so anything rebased from ovirt master at that point in time or 
afterwards would be helpful.

as Itamar mentioned below, spice-devel mailing-list members (CC'd) should be able to answer 
this question.
