That's not necessarily true; Some of us search the mailing list archives
for answers to our questions.  I set up a 3.0.0 test box today.  Then I
spent about 30 minutes today searching, reading and figuring out that
the feature is gone in Xen 3.0.0.  Better yet, I understand *why* the
feature is gone.  But I do hope it returns soon...
