Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Convert shutdown to use xenstore

[Mark Williamson <mark.williamson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dan,

Any reason not to use textual data in the store rather than numbers?  IMO it'd 
make it a little more readable - numbers only make sense if you have the 
header file - but I don't know if there's a convention on this.

Cheers,
Mark
