Ian, does Sourceforge's CVS check it into the main Xen tree > or do you propose a separate tree for the documentation? I will try to bring my Howto 1.2-compatiable once it's ISO is released, then Ian may want to check that in into the 1.2 and unstable tree. > As far the the documentation structure is concerned I think there > should be 3 main areas: Overview, Developer and End User.

The End User docs should contain the FAQ > and the merged HOWTO for now. I will also keep in touch with you about the developer section because I am going to modify the scheduler with more features. Throughout the process I should write down my experience and comments systemtically.
