Hi,
I realized that the changes in xen versions between minor versions 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 seem to be quite big. One example seems to be API changes as big as pci passthrough (I just read about it but didn't test that) and that the linux kernel configs seem to be quite different, at least in the xen section, probably also in the rest.

So I wonder why such big changes are only minor version numbers.

Is there some versioning scheme for the xen releases?

Henning
