In an effort to push xen into more parts of the computing world, I am
announcing the start of a brand new project here at Brainfood.

Our plans are to port Xen to run *inside* a JVM(Kaffe), so that we can make
use of the write-one-run-anywhere mantra.  The magic piece of code that will
enable this is Mips2Java.

Unfortunately, at this time, Xen does not yet run on mips.  So, we are looking
for volunteers to port Xen to mips, so that then we can have Xen run under
Kaffe, which will then let us run it on the final platform, mobile phones.

I am all for that, I also think you guys should consider porting the
Jython Java/Python runtime to run inside Xen, so that in the longer term
we will be able take advantage of the Twisted libraries in Xen, for
instance I imagine the scheduler could be rewritten on top of Twisted's
excellent async programming framework. This would also make room for
more use of SOAP and XML, so that security policies for sHype could be
fetched on-demand from a centralized web-service. Talk about an agile,
service-oriented VMM!


Hahaha, some people are easy.

Please take a look at the date this mail was sent.
