Hi, Martin and all

as newbye am adding just "canonicals 2 cents" :

in my mind virtual has "temporary-limited" meaning more than 
"not-really-existing" while logical implies something that will be 
multiplexed by a phisical "something" (as in logical-interfaces and 
phisical-interfaces); maybe definition can include (or exclude) that 
interpretation.
