Sorry to keep asking about the same topic, but I have one more question
regarding security updates for xen kernels.

Security is quite interesting, isn't it?!

Is there a mailing list or
anything out there that I can sign up for to be notified when an exploit
or other security problem is found in a xen kernel.


Not that I know of.

Too sad that the xen developers seem not to feel any need to reply on
this question I asked them. They seem too busy counting money from
their deals with MS  - no time to shed a light on their developing
processes and security handling.

(what deal?)
I am too concerned by security. Before moving to production I would like to know how xen developers will handle the update of the xen-kernel patch. Will there be a sort of 'universal' xen patch for the vanilla kernel, so user may patch himself a known exploits free kernel ?
thx.
