Bug#706843: release-notes: OpenVZ removing is not documented



Package: release-notes
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

OpenVZ kernels have been removed from Debian stable. There is no mention
about this removal in the section 4.8 of the release notes (nor in any
other section).

This should probably be documented somehow, hopefully hinting for some
migration path (probably to LXC containers) as in:

  * the OpenVZ patched kernels are no longer available. Users of OpenVZ
    containers should consider migrating to LXC containers.

This would undoubtedly deserve some more documentation (probably in the
documentation of the lxc package) but probably release-notes should
give pointers only.

I'm quite unsure about the severity of the current bug, feel free to
downgrade.

Regards,

Patrice Pillot
