Re: [Xen-API] How to built XCP from source-1.iso ?

[Lars Kurth <lars.kurth@xxxxxxx>]

I believe that the issues stated below can be overcome and there has 
been progress on some. I guess a good opportunity to get this started 
would be one of the Xen Docs Days. I am not sure whether next Monday 
would be good though, as quite a few people will be at UDS
