Thread-topic: Xen 3.0.3 released!
Folks, 

We're pleased to announce the official release of xen 3.0.3!

This release includes many new features as well as enhanced 
stability and performance. Some highlights include: 

  - a new easy-to-use CPU scheduler which includes weights, caps, 
    and automatic SMP load-balancing; 
  - support for Xen-oprofile to allow measurement and optimization 
    of code paths; 
  - greatly enhanced support for unmodified ("hvm") guests including 
    Windows and legacy Linux operating systems;
  - support for dynamic-allocation and copy-on-write disks
("blktap/qcow"); 
  - packet segmentation offload in guests to improve network
performance; 
  - enhanced support for IA64 (IPF) systems; and initial support for
Power. 

You can download source and binary tarballs, RPMs, and a live 'demo' CD
from:

As always, you can also get the source using mercurial from: 
  http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-3.0.3-testing.hg 

Cheers,
Ian (on behalf of the whole Xen dev team)
