Actually, the xen patches are several months old.  The
Plan 9 kernel is from June.  Is it dependent on the version
of xen I use?  I think the one that I'm running is 2.0.4.

The kernel images appear to be the same ones I have and the
source files seem to be at least as old as what I have.
This is the stuff in /n/sources/xen, right?

I'm looking forward to that.  At that point, I'll probably be
able to justify booting into xen/Linux/Plan9 all the time.
Do you have any inside knowledge on when 3.0 is likely to
see the light of day?

Thanks,
