Xen devel - Mar 2006 - Status of work on virtual frame buffer for para-virt guests

Anthony,

I see that in mid January you put forth some work you had done on a
virtual frame buffer/keyboard support for para-virt guests for comment. 
I haven''t heard anything since on this work.  Are you still developing
this functionality?  If so what updates can you provide and target date
for inclusion in unstable?

Is anyone else working on this type of functionality?

Yeah, it''s been on the back burner while I''ve been getting the
XML-RPC
stuff ready.

Ian had some requests before inclusion (finding a sane way to handle 
copy events is the big one).

Not currently, although you''re welcome to help out :-)  I have a bundle
available with the latest code.
