[Pkg-xen-devel] Help wanted with Debian Xen packages ?

[Guido Trotter]

Hi Ian,

Thanks for contacting us. I've been on parental leave for the last 9
months and haven't used Xen or had development machines in the
meantime.
So effectively I've been inactive on it. Before I was only dealing
with security updates for stable as Bastian was not interested.

Thanks,

Guido
