Their development tree was at: http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/direct-io.hg
but it looks like its not been updated for a while.

They posted some patches to xen-devel a while back, which might be worth you 
searching the archives for.  I don't remember hearing anything about it for a 
while but I may just be out of touch!

I'm not sure what the current status of the work is.

Cheers,
Mark
