How much memory can I assign to each guest:

Yes, Xen doesn't do swapping. If swapping is needed, the guests should be
configured to do it themselves.
* not more than physical memory minus memory used by dom0 and other doms?
Correct. Bear in mind Xen uses some memory too.
Are there any plans on implementing swapping? It's really comfortable to start
multiple guests with more memory than actually installed in the machine to have
it available in case they need it (without manually tweaking something during
the systems already run). That's one of the features I really like in VMWare
ESX.
On the other hand, it's great that you don't have swapping, because that
means that Xen hosting providers won't be able to lie to you about the
amount of physical RAM they are selling to you.
Please, don't implement swapping! ;-)
