[Xen-devel] [xen 4.6 retrospective] [bad] Unclear support status of features

[Lars Kurth <lars.kurth.xen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Again, this came up in the developer meeting. This is my last one for today. More next week

= Issue / Observation =
Sometimes it is difficult to find out whether a feature is supported (or in experimental or other state)

This has an impact on the security team

It also makes life hard for Xen consumers

= Possible Solution / Improvement =

Currently the following two proposal are under discussion

In-tree feature documentation

* http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-08/msg02002.html

* http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-08/msg01995.html

* http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-08/msg01994.html

Proposal: Feature Maturity Lifecycle

* http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-06/msg01992.html

(Lars to pick this up when the "In-tree feature documentation" has settled slightly more - also find a better place for this doc, in-tree)
