Daniel Veillard (of libxml2 fame) at Red Hat is doing some interesting work
with libvirt, a C API to interact with virtualisation environments. It could
be a very useful tool to use in a Xen (and others) management system - maybe
even something that could be managed as nicely (if not moreso) as Zones.
