While I wouldn't strictly mind its shutting off or the disabling of
hgweb as was suggested in a reply, either would mean to me personally
that it wouldn't be easy enough anymore to warrant trying to hunt
down the origin of certain Linux side aspects in the 2.6.18-xen tree.
Admittedly me doing so has become increasingly rare over time ...
