I joined Citrix almost exactly a year ago. I have spent a lot of that time working on packaging xapi and the other toolstack components so that they can be built outside Citrix using standard tools, and installed and run on standard Linux distributions [1]. With a lot of help from Dave Scott, Jon Ludlam, Bob Ball, Mate Lakat and many others we are now able to build and run Xapi on CentOS 6.5, Ubuntu Trusty and Debian Jessie on x86_64, as well as on Linaro on ARM! I'm particularly interested in: 1) Continuing to improve Xapi's packaging, and helping upstream distributions to include these packages in their repositories. 2) Making Xapi more robust and reliable, and making it easier to figure out what went wrong when it does fail.
