Yes, I'm working on a blog post about jitsu and synjitsu that I plan to
circulate internally before the weekend.

The version of Jitsu we used for evaluation has been released and is in
mirage-dev, but we have not yet used it to host unikernels on a public
server so we will probably discover some new issues when we do that.
Anil and Dave are preparing a Xen server where we will test this.

Currently Synjitsu requires an older patched TCP/IP stack and the ARP
tables are a bit difficult to set up. It would be nice if we could merge
the patch into the main stack before NSDI and add a way to configure the
ARP tables dynamically, as it would be much easier to install.
