And what other patches can we expect to see to complete the xen dom0
support?


and..

I hate to be the one to say it, but we should sit down and work out
whether it is justifiable to merge any of this into Linux.  I think

the world is moving off in the "new" direction, KVM?

In three years time, will we regret having merged this?
