  Yep, I think this is the way to go.  So we'll have:

http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/powerpc/
http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/ia64/

Each will have a linux-2.6.18-xen.hg repo in it that will be maintained
by the arch maintainers and used for pulls into upstream.  The default
arch Xen branch needs to be moved into the directory as well.  I also
think it might be good to standardize on names.  I'd like the
xen-ia64-unstable.hg repo to be renamed to xen-unstable.hg.  This way
we'll end up with common names like:

/xen-unstable.hg
/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
/staging/xen-unstable.hg
/staging/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg
/ext/ia64/xen-unstable.hg
/ext/ia64/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg

Sound good?  Thanks,

        Alex
