Xenner is an emulator for allowing Xen domUs to be booted without the
Xen hypervisor.
Xennite is an experimental replacement for the Xen userland management
stack in dom0: it moves more functionality from the Xen tools in dom0
into the qemu-dm process. This is moving in almost the opposite
direction to Xen upstream is moving: we are moving qemu-dm into its
own tiny domain, so that the qemu code doesn't need to run as a
process in dom0; this has important security and scalability
advantages.
