You might get a better response if you don't drop the CC.

AIUI the intention is to eventually support ARM.

I expect the xen-api CC was because it is the existing project leads who
ultimately vote to accept the project or something like that.

We are indeed planning to support xen-arm, but are waiting for hardware.
Dave and I both have Chromebooks A15 now, and we have patches floating around
for HVM/x86_minios.  An ARM PVHVM version should be quite straightforward.

Another summer project I'm happy to supervise (particularly for GSoC) is a
direct Raspberry Pi port, using uBoot as the main bootloader.  That should
shake out any ARM-specific issues in advance of a Xen/ARM port. Please get in
touch with me if interested in this one.

[Lars Kurth]

Goswin,

I posted on all three xen.org developer lists, as I always do for 
governance related items. However, I remember a conversation with Anil 
the project lead stating that he follows the Xen ARM work and that this 
is of interest to Mirage. I will let Anil respond. Whether it works on 
ARM now is a different question.

Maybe we should add a paragragraph related to ARM to the project 
proposal to clarify.

Best Regards
Lars
