Uploading linux-2.6 2.6.37-1 to unstable
I intend to upload linux-2.6 and linux-kbuild-2.6 based on upstream version 2.6.37, later this week. linux-latest-2.6 will also be updated. Note that the OpenVZ, VServer and Xen flavours have been dropped and will not come back. OpenVZ and VServer users should migrate to LXC (Linux containers, using the cgroups and namespace features). Xen support in mainline Linux is improving and it should be usable as the dom0 kernel soon. AUFS will be included for use in Debian Live if there is a version compatible with 2.6.37.

I think they will, e.g. netback is going through review now and I would expect it to be merged in time for 2.6.39. Apparently Linux 2.6.38 will have enough functionality in dom0 that blkback and netback can be implemented in userland in qemu.

I think they will, e.g. netback is going through review now and I would expect it to be merged in time for 2.6.39. Yes, I'm actively working on it and hope to get it in for 2.6.39. Apparently Linux 2.6.38 will have enough functionality in dom0 that blkback and netback can be implemented in userland in qemu. I think that's the case, yes. The qemu-xen in Squeeze doesn't have the backends, in case someone was planning to try a new kernel on Squeeze.
