 SigmaSquadron | An update to this: the Xen team wrote an updated version of that article together, and we'd like to send it to upstream on a more official capacity. Thus, I'd like to ask permission from the marketing team to send the following text to the Xen Project, which will then publish it on their homepage with a link to https://nixos.org | 17:47:57 |

 [0x4A6F] | Since 24.11, the Xen Project now has its own functioning options, available under the virtualisation.xen.* option set.
There seems to be a further history of this option set down the history lane of that other repo:
commit 5c1f8cbc70cd5e6867ef6a2a06d27a40daa07010
Author: Eelco Dolstra <eelco.dolstra@logicblox.com>

Move all of NixOS to nixos/ in preparation of the repository merge
diff --git a/nixos/modules/virtualisation/xen-dom0.nix b/nixos/modules/virtualisation/xen-dom0.nix

oh yeah, the xen options were available since forever, but they were also broken since forever, so we pretend they didn't exist. | 21:50:57 |

| tomberek | Overall, yes. Once you're happy with the article, it is a good thing to put out. Do they also have some article about Nix/NixOS? | 00:31:30 |

As far as I'm aware, they don't use NixOS, so no. Maybe we can change that in the future! The Xen CM will publish it some time in December, to coincide with a website overhaul upstream is working on. | 16:15:18 |
