Dear Xen Developers,
I wanted to announce that Ian Campbell from Citrix has been nominated
and elected as Xen Hypervisor committer
<http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-01/msg02281.html> and
will be responsible for the ARMv7+VE components in xen-unstable. We have
seen an increasing number of patches to xen-unstable to enable support
for the ARMv7 processor with virtualization extensions: 64 to be
precise. So far, the Xen ARM port in xen-unstable is capable of booting
a Linux 3.0 based virtual machine (dom0).
Ian has made a tremendous contribution to the project on which he worked
almost since its creation. Ian was was one of the top contributors to
the project for the last few years. Let me quote a few stats:
*2010:* 203 patches, changing 13101 lines of code
*2011:* 305 patches, changing 12225 lines of code
Ian also put together a build farm for the project that utilizes 10
Freescale i.MX53 Loco Quickstart boards. Besides working on the
Hypervisor, Ian has also made significant contributions to the PVOPS
project <http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XenParavirtOps>.
*Congratulations Ian!

Best Regards
Lars
