Xen and the art of the Linux Foundation

2013-05-13 Thread Adrian Chadd
Hi all,

Now that the Xen project is moving under the umbrella of the Linux
foundation, what's that mean for Xen on non-Linux platforms?

Xen source code and licensing is going to stay exactly the same. Could
you be a little bit more explicit about the concerns?

The major benefit is that the guardian of the project is no longer just
Citrix, so Xen is more vendor neutral.

Regards, Roger.

Re: FreeBSD PVHVM call for testing

Right, it's definitely annoying having to pay more -- I just wanted to point out
that the ability does exist, if you're willing to pay the price.

 At the AWS Summit, an assertion was made that HVM support might be coming soon
 for all instance types for *NIX OSes.  I hope that's true.

Was it indeed?  I must not have been present for that... it certainly would be
good news.  Certainly all the new instance types they've released in the past
few years have had UNIX HVM support.

  I think should be encouraged.  We're eagerly awaiting the ability to run
  FreeBSD in AWS in something other than t1.micro or cluster compute
  instances.  Should we keep holding out hope, or will AWS make HVM
 available
  for all instance types before this happens?

 Err... my AMIs run on all EC2 instance types.  On some you have to pay the
 Windows rate, that's all.
