Hi all,

Nice to join and meet the virtual publicity team. I'm excited to be working with Lars and all of you on Xen.

I'm still sifting through all the 4.4 specifics below, but here my initial, general comments:

1) Oracle quote is a great addition.

2) I'd be happy to help review, format the blog written about Linux and PVH and how to compile, build, test, etc. I can also explore publishing it on Linux.com or possibly beyond. We can/should reference the blog url in our news release, subject to timing of course.

Thanks,

Sarah Conway

In fact, I would love to see an Oracle quote. We have not had one in a while and you should use this to take all the credit for the PVH work. You may want to discuss with Wim early.

Good idea. Let me poke him.
