Not following the Xen develpment at all, I would like to have a positive
reply from the listed Xen contacts, please,

I do have concerns that this is turning up so late, but I realise that
that is mainly due to a misunderstanding on the part of some of the Xen
community.

Also, the above tree is based on next-20101019 which means that I cannot
use it as is.  All the trees merged into linux-next must be base on some
other stable tree (almost always Linus' tree).  linux-next is rebuilt
from scratch every day, so I cannot ever include a previous day's version.

Merging in other stable trees is OK (as long as the other maintainer is
aware of that and makes sure that their tree does not reabse).

Basically what you send to me should be what you intend to send to Linus
during the next merge window.
