This is an ongoing effort. In short, yes. But, we have been making
improvements as much as we can for quite some time. There is also an
effort that is high priority to improve the Xen.org website in
general. Project Three Eyes was proposed by our previous community
manager and is being pursued fervently now that we have a new
community manager in place.

We would love your specific feedback and suggestions (and help as you are able).

XCP documentation in particular is very high on the priority list at
the moment. We have been putting a lot of effort into it.

As far as examples and documentation go for XCP you are in luck
because just about all of the documentation that applies to XenServer
5.6 FP1 will apply directly to XCP.

http://docs.vmd.citrix.com/XenServer/5.6.0fp1/1.0/en_gb/

(Google searches for XenServer or XCP often give lots of good results
that apply)

That being said, there will be difference in XCP and XenServer going forward.

We are documenting the differences here and will try to keep it up to
date (with the communities help):
http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XCP_Docs

Our apologies for out of date documentation. We have been cleaning
through the old/date information the best we can and creating new
documents as necessary.

We do have a XCP category, but we are still in the process of tagging
everything.
http://wiki.xen.org/xenwiki/XCP_Docs?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=category:xcp&titlesearch=Titles

Watch for things to improve over the coming months, but also feel free
to be in contact with me if you have any specific comments, questions,
or concerns.

We do the best we can and rely on the Xen community and the great
community that is forming around XCP to help out and let us know what
is most important.

Thanks for your feedback!
