At today's blocker review meeting, taking into account all the feedback
from this thread and the devel list thread, we accepted the following
text as a Final release criterion:

"The release must boot successfully as Xen DomU with releases providing
a functional, supported Xen Dom0 and widely used cloud providers
utilizing Xen. This does not include any issues limited to the release
functioning as Xen Dom0"

I will add it to the 16 and 17 pages shortly.
