RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] Re: xen-ia64-mm 
| Hi Fred --
The primary reason for having a separate tree is so that
multiple community members can contribute to the domain0
P==M to VP+DMA conversion without breaking the
xen-ia64-unstable.hg tree.
xen-ia64-unstable should always work for bringing up
domain0 and domU (with VBD).  For a while, it is likely
that the new -mm tree may not even boot domain0 and
it may be several weeks before domU works.
As soon as -mm boots dom0/domU/VBD as well as it does
today (and preferably networking too), those changes
should be merged into xen-ia64-unstable.
Thanks,
Dan
