Ack, I had noticed that upstream seemed pretty dead. Python isn't my forte, but I shall certainly take a look and see if I can't fix some bugs. I have found a patch in the upstream bug tracker related to the console, so I shall investigate that. There has also been some recent enquiries from other people on the upstream bug tracker, who I shall try and make contact with to see if they are interested in helping to work on the project. Currently I have imported the upstream SVN into a Github repository at [1]. It would be a great shame to see the project die, as it is the only GUI I have found for XenServer that runs on Linux. I shall update this bug report if I manage to make any progress.
