[Cialug] Next Meeting - Wednesday September 17

[Theron Conrey]

If my sources are true, and after a few drinks I mean c'mon who knows.... If you purchase a copy of Citrix's XenServer, it uses a tweaked version of CentOS for it's base.
RH did in fact drop Xen for KVM, although that happened a while ago, and as far as hyper-V and MS, it should come as no surprise that Hyper-V is "Hyper-V is an implementation of the Xen open reference standard".

more news to follow.......

There was the rumour that, since Citrix was thought to be in the palm
of Microsoft, that Xen would become, Xen Virtualization Server Edition
Premium NG. Would love to hear how that turns out. Also there's been a
rumour that RH is dropping Xen in favour of KVM. You've gotta give us
the juicy details.

And what do you mean by "citrix/_centos_/xen monster?" When did centos
become part of that?
