This is a major new release with a host of new features including:

performance and security
- PVGrub: boot PV kernels using real GRUB inside the PV domain

- Shadow3: optimisations to make this the best shadow pagetable algorithm
yet, making HVM performance better than ever

locality

different CPU models.
- PVSCSI drivers for SCSI access direct into PV guests
- HVM framebuffer optimisations: scan for framebuffer updates more
efficiently
