[Pkg-xen-devel] More on our TODO lit

Hi!

We have a couple more things on our TODO list, it seems... (If we could use the
BTS tracking things would be better) (or we could use the issue tracker on
alioth, for now)


1. xen-utils:
	Right now domains get shut down on upgrade... This is ok in a 2.0 -> 3.0
	scenario, but it's not in a 3.0.1 -> 3.0.2, where we could avoid that,
	probably! Should we perhaps try to avoid that, hacking a bit on the
	maintainer scripts?

2. kernel-patch-xen:
	Steve says the policy is not to distribute it unless it applies to the
	debian kernel... Shall we withdraw it? We can still have the diff
	perhaps published on alioth (as there it's more official than in some
	website of ours) and document this in README, for people who prefer to
	roll their own kernel! What to you think? In that case we can leave the
	patch in the repo, and just move it out of the debian/ directory...

3. -unstable:
	Steve says it's useless to distribute both unstable and 3.0, Bastian and
	Jeremy would like to... For me, no problem at all, but we'll have to
	sort this out!

4. glibc:
	Contacting the glibc team is still on our TODO list, and can be done
	after the release!

5. kernel:
	Sorting things out with Bastian and the kernel team still pending...

6. wnpp:
	Should we file an ITA there, now or in one day or two, as consensus on
	debian-devel seems we should adopt the package, but there are still a
	couple of things that we might want to wait for before uploading!

7. readme, etc:
	The other couple of small things I pointed out in some mail replying to
	-changes...

Guido
