[gnu-sol-discuss] Xen availability?

It seems that xen-tools is available, but not xen.

Is this because xen is not building properly?

I mentioned to a couple folks at Sun that it would be nice to apt-get install 
xen, and have it just work. It requires quite a bit of changes at this time, 
I think, but I don't know where that stands.

I saw a demo last week where a compile was started in a xen domain, and live 
migration was used to take that process, move it to another xen domain and 
finish the compile, all while the compile was active. It was pretty cool.
