I was not able to checkout. I noticed there is a wip/replay and 
continued with this branch. But then I got this error:

mario at moe:/usr/src/elmarco-spice$ ./autogen.sh
Cloning into spice-common...
fatal: https://git.gitorious.org/spice/spice-common/info/refs not found: 
did you run git update-server-info on the server?
Clone of 'https://git.gitorious.org/spice/spice-common' into submodule 
path 'spice-common' failed

Is there another repository?

I will take a look into it. Thanks.
