Welcome to the new Xen.org weekly newsletter with a variety of information to keep you updated on all things Xen. This newsletter is an upgrade from my previous weekly communications and is meant to offer a broader scope of Xen.org activities. Please feel free to contact me with suggestions for the newsletter.
There will be no newsletter next week as I will be sailing the Caribbean looking for treasure! The newsletter will return on Friday March 19 (unless I find buried treasure!).
