CentOS virt - Jul 2013 - Xapi packages in CentOS xen-c6 repo: first steps

Hi list,

Dave Scott has been working on a prototype of XenServer's Xapi running 
on stock CentOS 6.4 x86_64, with libvirt and ceph integration. He plans 
to demo this at the CentOS dojo in Aldershot next week.

We'll be publishing the RPMs for this in a public Yum repo, and we would 
really like for these RPMs to eventually live in the xen-c6 repo. I was 
wondering what are the steps for making this happen, and also if it 
would be possible to make this happen before the dojo next Friday (12 July).

We can provide a public Yum repository with these SRPMS and RPMS, if 
that would help. Thanks,

Mike

Hi,

Thanks Mike for bringing this up.

My RPMS are in a bit of an experimental state, and I'd really appreciate
people's feedback. It might be too soon to merge them into xen-c6 by next
week, but it would be nice if I could point people at an online copy somewhere.
Perhaps we could make a xen-c6-experimental repo or something? I could then
rsync new builds regularly and put setup instructions on the CentOS wiki.

Cheers,
Dave
