That is, to me, only mildly encouraging. 2.6.18 came out on Sept. 19, 2006, and there haven't been official Xen patches on anything else since. I don't know if that programmer hasn't been able to be very productive, or if Xensource has just recently assigned someone to the task. But in any case, it does not speak well of the long-term viability of Xen. Not only that, but I like the KVM model of Linux as the hypervisor. Xen hypervisor is kinda finicky about hardware; I've had it refuse to boot properly on Athlon64 machines for instance. -- John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
