On related news libxl (libxenlight) driver for Xen 4.1+ was merged
to libvirt last week.

Any idea what version of libvirt will end up in Fedora 15 ? 
Will it include the libxl driver?

(For those who don't know libxl: It's a new lightweight toolstack 
in Xen 4.1+ replacing the older python based xm/xend toolstack. 
Libxl is written in C, and it has 'xl' cmdtool instead of 'xm', 
and the syntax of 'xl' is mostly compatible with 'xm').
