 I am all for that, I also think you guys should consider porting the
 Jython Java/Python runtime to run inside Xen, so that in the longer term
 we will be able take advantage of the Twisted libraries in Xen, for
 instance I imagine the scheduler could be rewritten on top of Twisted's
 excellent async programming framework. This would also make room for
 more use of SOAP and XML, so that security policies for sHype could be
 fetched on-demand from a centralized web-service. Talk about an agile,
 service-oriented VMM!

Hahaha, some people are easy.

Actually, with everything running in java, we will be able to levage lots of
existing java apis.  Think networking done RMI.  Or shared-memory in xen
implemented thru JDBC.  And linux IPC done with JNDI.

The possibilities are endless.
