Hello,

Take a look at: http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenUSBPassthrough

There's actually a project related to Xen pvusb that would need some help..
ie. porting the pvusb code to the recent pvops kernel, more info here: 
http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/XenDevelopmentProjects

It would be great if you could work on porting the drivers!
