Xen devel - Oct 2013 - xen snapshotting status

Hi, List,

I found "Full-VM snapshotting" feature in xen 4.3 and xen 4.4 feature
list,
but no one takes it. What''s the current status? Is there anyone working
on
that? Any progress?

Thanks,
Chunyan

You mean the development updates which George sends out? You can think
of those more like "agile" style backlogs, rather than promises to
implement in a certain time frame.

At one point it was a proposed GSoC project but I don''t think it was
ever picked up.

AFAIK noone is actively working on this, so go for it ;-)
