Sorry, this is a little bit off topic for this forum.

strategic investment in the Xen-architecture space.

What version of Xen is currently (or in foreseeable future) Oracle VM for
x86/x64 is
(will be) running ?
What kind of kernel is currently ( or in foreseeable future )  supporting (will
support) Dom0 in Oracle VM for x86/x64 ?
