Hi Chris & Jan,

It's my understanding that the GPLPV drivers are no longer maintained. I
believe the currently-maintained project is the Xen Project WinPV drivers.

There is a list which you can subscribe to at
https://lists.xenproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/win-pv-devel for
information.

There is also more information about the project here:
http://www.xenproject.org/developers/teams/windows-pv-drivers.html

Currently there are no signed drivers available from this project but
there are plans to make them available in the future (there are some
issues with the Linux Foundation accepting terms from Microsoft).
