This is great! In the meantime we are working on uploading xen 3.0 to unstable,
and our packages I think are almost ready too! We planned to contact the kernel
team after the upload to see how to coordinate, but it's nice to know that the
kernel part is being taken care of! :)

Our packages don't contain any kernel (we wouldn't have uploaded them without
asking the kernel team, of course) but we plan on shipping just the xen patch
for a kernel.org kernel, just in case someone preffers running a non-debian
kernel: is that OK, or should we remove that from our sources?
