Re: [Publicity] Media Opp: Sean Michael Kerner - Xen Project 4.4

[Sarah Conway <sconway@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Per the subject line, Sean Michael Kerner, who writes for eWeek, Internetnews.com and ServerWatch.com, sent these questions. He covers Linux and open source and is quite familiar with Xen. He wrote this pro-Xen article last fall:  http://www.serverwatch.com/server-news/how-xen-virtualization-got-its-zen-back-linuxcon.html

Thanks,
