[Xen-users] Can xen pv drivers take profit from this ?
Hello, some have maybe heard of the GPL dirvers for KVM. See: http://www.techworld.com.au/article/316219/red_hat_open_sources_windows_virtualisation_drivers Is there any profit that Xen can get from this ?

Anyhow as redhat is pushing kvm we can expect them to improve quickly. Maybe there is or there will be interesting things to pick in those drivers.
