Hi,
after thinking a lot about continuing xen as a hypervisor for ipfire 3.x (and=
 after having talked to micha) I decided to not maintain Xen Hypervisor and X=
en Userspace tools any more for now.

The reasons for this are:
- I will switch from xen to kvm with my systems and so I will not spend a lot=
 of time reading xen mailing lists
- The Xen-Sourcecode is not really well "written" and documented
- This leads to a big effort in looking for patches because of the hardened s=
ystem
- libvirt is not supported yet
- and finally: I don't have the time to spend several evenings bug fixing aft=
er each new released xen version.
