Re: [Xen-devel] Will Xen 4.3 use upstream QEMU by default ?

[Matthias <matthias.kannenberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can i suggest that this issue should be sorted out first before doing

http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2013-03/msg00211.html

Cause for somebody who comes new to xen for using vga passthrough,
this would cause some unnecessary confusion..
