I think you should use "xen/next-2.6.32" as the input to the test subsystem. If you have a git tree on xenbits with a, say, "xen/tested-2.6.32" branch which gets updated when the tests pass, then I can make that automatically update xen/stable-2.6.32.x for public consumption. That way people who need/want bleeding edge changes can use xen/next-2.6.32, and everyone else gets xen/stable-2.6.32.x by default. J
