Does anyone know if the contents of
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/readmes/
is stored anywhere within the xen.org domain?

I don't, yet, have an installed copy of Xen nor, as noted, access to
the Computer Lab copy of the ReadMe's, so I can't generate a
significant search string to help me locate them within Xen.org
domain.

As to maintaining the ReadMe's, is there anyone actively attempting to
maintain them?
