Hi Anthony, Good to hear from you. We really believe in the value of open source and the opportunities that it provides for creativity. I know that I mentioned in the original post that we've made our source available in toto for reasons of time, with patches to the existing open source to follow. What's perhaps a bit confusing is that we also released, in the same source base, a number of differences in the control plane. Our main intersection of interest with the currently implemented open source project is in the hypervisor. We look forward to providing the patches to the hypervisor and getting changes back into that code base. You're correct in noting that we also released other code. It, too, is released under GPL and is free for anyone to make any use of it as they see fit. If there is interest, advantange or opportunity in incorporating any of this into the existing open source project, we'll be happy to assist in whatever way we're able. I believe that there are many ways and scenarios in which the existing code may be put to use. The community has been terrific in moving forward on one of the many possible solution sets. I'd love to see where else our combined creativity can take us. Thanks for your continued interest, -b Anthony Liguori wrote: This is a rather radical departure from where Xen is currently going. Is your goal to get this stuff in mainline or were you just making everyone aware of your changes?If you're interested in getting it into mainline, we can discuss some of the details but as I said, this is rather different from where Xen is currently going...Regards, Anthony Liguori -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ben Thomas Virtual Iron Software bthomas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Tower 1, Floor 2 978-849-1214 900 Chelmsford Street Lowell, MA 01851 _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
