Xen Project Hypervisor Roadmap/4.5

Rather than try to predict precisely what will make it into what release (which was something of a disaster last release), I'm just going to borrow a term from the Agile world and call all uncompleted features the "Backlog". I'll still track who is doing what, and when we get close, what state things seem to be in.

Release Manager

We confirmed Konrad Wilk from Oracle as Release Manager for Xen 4.5 : see this e-mail thread

Roadmap on xen-devel

As in the past, roadmap discussions will mostly happen on the xen-devel mailing list. The convention is that

• Our release manager will regularly post an e-mail called Xen 4.5 development update on the list and that community members respond to it. See
• Xen 4.5 Development Update (June)
• Xen 4.5 Development Update (May)
• historical 4.4 roadmap discussions
