Well, I've been maintaining dtc-xen since Lenny, and it does even more than xen-tools.

DTC-Xen is in Squeeze and I wont give-up on it.

This is your own *personal view* on Xen vs KVM thing. I really don't see Xen dying despite the 2 years of bad propaganda of the KVM supporters. This eroneous view should *NOT* be pushed as Debian's official view. Xen is doing well, and there are more chances that the dom0 patches will be accepted this year as people improve Xen as required for inclusion.

Xen support in Debian will continue as long as there are some people willing to work on it, and there's quite some activity by the pkg-xen guys (Bastian, etc.).
