This is fine as far as it goes but I wonder if perhaps
docs/README.{remus,colo} ought to be moved into docs/misc, perhaps
converted to markdown (which should be trivial) and perhaps merged into
a single document about checkpointing?

Agreeed that we can add a checkpointing.txt to docs/misc, and describe
remus/COLO in that file. but can we do this later when COLO feature is
merged? at that time we can do this within one patch.


The reason for the move is twofold, first it is a bit a typical for docs
to live in the top-level docs dir and secondly moving it into misc will
cause it to appear automatically at
http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/ etc.

Ian.

+COLO FT/HA (COarse-grain LOck-stepping Virtual Machines for Non-stop Service)
+project is a high availability solution. Both primary VM (PVM) and secondary VM
+(SVM) run in parallel. They receive the same request from client, and generate
+response in parallel too. If the response packets from PVM and SVM are
+identical, they are released immediately. Otherwise, a VM checkpoint (on 
demand)
