XenSource already has PV drivers, so I guess they already have all information needed.

XenSource is a business with bills to pay. I am continually astounded that folks who expect to be paid a salary expect others to provide software for free. To release a product means there needs to be a business case which at least covers the costs.

Did you read at least a couple of posts in this thread? Or, perhaps, did you care to read the subject?
It's about purchasing PV drivers, not getting them for free.
