I'd really like to see some more distribution support (especially ubuntu) behind xen. DomU support in natty is already *not so bad* and with a 2.6.40/3.0 kernel in oneiric the dom0 support shouldn't be much of a problem either. Just the hypervisor that's missing... I am using xen 4.1 packages on natty. They still have some rough edges but if you know what you are doing they already work *not so bad* too :) I put the packages online at [1]. They're basically a debian-unstable remake.
