Someone has put together a pile of patches from the OpenSuse repository to bring Xen into the newer kernels for the greater good of the internet. Well, they really did it for gentoo, but patches are patches!

This is great for hardware support and the newer features.

It’s unfortunate that citrix is working so hard to make Xen obsolete. The open source community flourishes when the Release Early, Release Often(tm) doctrine is followed. It keeps people interested, advertises of bugs fixed, and well, is just good publicity. Unless all your releases suck. Of course, Source Mage doesn’t really have “releases” in the typical sense. We release new stable grimoires about every other month now. I may have even had some small contribution to the most recent one. But it’s not a new ISO or something tangible for people. Which seems to be a requisite for some odd reason. I have yet to figure it out…

I should really get my OMFG Automation project up and running. Have been kind of burnt out the last couple days.
