I have a build of xen-4.1.0-rc7 at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2918588 which is expected to be the last release candidate with the final release scheduled for Monday. The 2.6.38 kernel has been released, and I have built a a dom0 version at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2915320

We got another release candidiate xen-4.1.0-rc8 instead, built at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2929815 The final release has slipped to Friday. I am considering building the release candidate as an official rawhide/F15 package so I can be sure to get it into F15 in time for the Beta release.

I have now done offical builds of a slightly tidied up version of the above build for rawhide and Fedora 15 which are available at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=7 . Let me know if there are any problems.

If I have Fedora 10 - Fedora 14 domUs running on fc8 dom0s with plain disk image files and bridged networking, can I move some of these to this F15 dom0, should they run ok there?

Does anyone know if that is the case, I think it was code from Oracle?

Also, do you anticipate then updating these packages throughout the life of F15 (even if they are just in testing or some other repo)? Thanks again to everyone who has worked/is working to squeeze this in.

My general policy for the xen package is to stick with the main xen version it was released with, so F13 is 3.4.3, F14 is 4.0.1 and probably won't go to 4.1.0, but probably would go to 4.0.2 when it appears, and I imagine F15 with remain on 4.1.x though its life. The kernel situation is different because there is no official kernel that provides satisfactory dom0 support (so far), so I expect I will keep building dom0 kernels which should work on F15, at least until there is a reasonable official Fedora kernel.
