Right, hopefully Avi is sufficiently ashamed after Greg publicly reminding him
that there is a reason he is on cc for some mails (so much for maintainers
checking).

I would doubt it. Which reminds me that in the past, when we did security
updates touching kvm (but probably on all more central changes) I did a quick
test (booting a live CD on KVM) there and after successfully blowing away some
PPA builders I also made a Hardy server install with Xen dom0 and a domU on it.
I think this would be 2 cases that could be automated (adding Manoj to the cc as
there is this sprint next week).
