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
it's still the case that the Xen technology is the "old" way and that
the world is moving off in the "new" direction, KVM?
In three years time, will we regret having merged this?
