 Ok thanks. Interest is quite high; we ourselves are exploring
 possibilities on how we can leverage this on some of our router
 platforms which run NetBSD. Thanks for the pointer I'll dig up the KVM
 lists.

 I personally don't have plans to continue Xen development, but I can't
 speak for anybody else.
 
 However, some very experimental work has been done for e500 with KVM.
 There's been some discussion on kvm-ppc-devel
 (http://marc.info/?l=kvm-ppc-devel) .
 
 Can I ask what your interest is? Are you a developer or just 
 looking to
 use it? If you had virtualization on e500 today, how would you use it?
