Re: [Xen-devel] Re: Status of "management port" in 3.0?

[ed despard <despareg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

gXenophilia hasnt been looked at in a while... weve gotten lazy with 
maintaining the code.  If you have issues with it though, feel free to 
email me and ill see if i can help you. It should also be noted that it 
was written against the stable branch, and im not sure if it will work 
with 3.0 right now.  As to better web services, both me and mike mccabe 
are working on some preliminary XMLRPC servers built into Xend.  
Hopefully one of use will have somthing to show for it, or at least the 
basic infrastructure for it soon.
