Hi, all

I'm wondering if XenPPC can work on Cell BE(As it includes a 970
compatiable Core),

Yes, it could work on Cell with not a whole lot of effort.
Some register remappings, IIC and IOMMU work and you'd get just about everything else for free.


and ...what about PS3? Is it possible?

PS3 already comes with Sony's Hypervisor, so unless you can get _it_ out of the way, it would take substantially more work and it would be similar to the noHV work that was done for G5s:

Or anybody already working on it?

nope, but I know quite a bit about Cell and would be willing to help.
