Hi, I really would appreciate a recent xen3 debian package as well, so I am willing to help as good as I can to get this on track. I have created an alioth account for me (called: "tha-guest") and will subscribe to the mailinglists to keep me up to date.
As Saku already said, I have already working xen3 packages (at the moment xen 3.0.1) which could be a good base for further development. There are some aspects that could be made better and some aspects that may not be 100% compatible to the debian policy right now, but that should be only some minor issues. If someone not already saw the packages, take a look yourself: http://packages.debianbase.de/sources/xen3/ I also have a package for a xen dom0/U kernel, but this is more or less only a hack so that I can compile xen kernels for all debian distros (and for i386 + amd64) on my personal autobuilder. If the plan is to have a xen kernel in the main debian repository, then this would really need a lot work. if there is something I can do to help this project, let me know! regards, Ralph Am Dienstag, 14.
