New VMDK Format Specifications

The current VMDK format specifications does not have the following documented:

4 – create a preallocated virtual disk compatible with ESX Server (VMFS flat).

5 – create a compressed disk optimized for streaming.

Can the specs for these be made available as I am looking to find a cross-platform way to create the compressed format? (Need to include Mac OS X).

AFAIK, both these are already in the 1.1 document.

Thanks

I'll request it again. I might have the wrong one. Thanks
