Unsolved blockers for the MirageOS 3 main release:
* coinstallability of solo5 and xen on the same opam switch
* expression of library version dependencies in unikernel configuration

Blockers for a MirageOS 3 beta release (by which I mean, a tag set on a 
version of our APIs that are unlikely to change drastically before major 
release):
* major changes to return types and error signalling in many of the 
functions in mirage-types.
More generally, you can view the status of work needed for MirageOS 3 at 
https://github.com/mirage/mirage/issues/592 .
Thanks,
Mindy
