Very good idea

If there is agreement, I can volunteer to set up such a repository: options for 
tracking are
*Our Atlassian Jira instance (maybe a new area specifically for this purpose)
* Wiki page
* Something else

    I'm out of office from the 8th to the 16th unfortunately.

    From my side:
    
    I've spoken to a fair number of folks on the To list here in 1-1
    discussions about this.
    
    I think it would be hugely beneficial if there could be an open
    repository of information that describes in clear terms what the
    specific engineering items are which are needed to make Xen viable for
    assessment towards safety certification.
    
    I'm not a Xen expert by any measure but off the top I recall that one
    item was the task of removing the reliance on the Linux kernel for
    Dom0.
    
    I am certain there are more.
    
    The motivation behind this is to spur folks into acknowledging the
    technical work that remains to be done. Whether that work then happens
    behind closed proprietary doors to generate value or in the open is an
    implementation detail.
    
    If nothing else - it would definitely act as an accelerator.
    
    Personally, I would be thrilled if there was enough momentum to openly
    massage Xen into the shape that I allude to. If that takes things 70%
    ahead with the remaining 30% done by misc Xen commercial entities as
    their differentiation value add - that's a huge bonus for the ecosystem
    and for the future of Xen.
    
    Thanks!
