Bastian, as far as I know, you are the *only* person on the kernel team 
interested in maintaining xen (at least I haven't heard others talking 
about it). I imagine that it is fairly complicated package, and there is 
already a whole team of people dedicated to packaging it. Definitely, it 
would be more productive to just include xen kernel images into linux-2.6 
and play nicely with the xen team to make sure that it runs smoothly. 
Telling them to take a hike at this point just because you are on the 
kernel team appears a lot like hijacking of the xen package to me.
