The best options for replacing xend here are either libvirt/virtd or
xapi.

I guess you already know about libvirt.

The XML-RPC interface exposed by xapi is a descendant of that used by
xend, although I'm not sure how much they have in common nowadays. Might
potentially make porting somewhat simple I guess (just a guess though).

You can get xapi either via the traditional XCP route or it is also now
available in Debian and Ubuntu as a result of project Kronos. Project
Zeus[2] is in progress to add it to Fedora etc.

Ian.
