* Package name : xen-tools Version : 4.1 Upstream Author : originally Steve Kemp * URL or Web page : http://www.xen-tools.org/ * License : GPL1+, Artistic License Description : Tools to manage Xen virtual servers Since I didn't notice in time that xen-tools has been removed from unstable[1] and testing, this is an ITP instead of the ITA which it would have been otherwise. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/561667 I don't think it's obsolete yet -- at least not until xen Dom0 support itself has been removed from Debian. Which is currently estimated to be the case after squeeze unless Xen dom0 support gets into mainline. I know that upstream stopped development since Steve doesn't use xen-tools (nor xen) anymore. So I'm currently evaluating how much work it would be to get xen-tools back in shape for sid and possibly squeeze (partially by doing some of that work of course :-) -- including looking through all previously open bug reports and taking over upstream development. So if anyone else wants xen-tools in squeeze (or for how long Xen will be available in Debian) please get in contact with me. I'm happy about any further helping hands to join the effort.
