Tamas: George brought this thread to my attention. I'm sorry that you feel blocked and/or overruled. The hypervisor MM code is not my area of expertise, but I have a keen interest in seeing a good, productive and friendly Xen community. I definitely don't want to see you pushed away, and driven to maintain an out-of-tree patchset.
Reading through your mails there seem to still have unresolved detailed technical disagreements between you and George about the existing behaviours in Xen, and the effects of your proposed changes. Right now I would like to ask both you and George to sort out those factual disagreements. I expect that you can do so. I hope that then the way forward will be clear: ie that you and George willbe in agreement about the direction in which the code should be going. I think that would be better than getting into a more abstract conversation about which use cases exist or are important, or an argument about areas of responsibility or authority. If either of you feel that you aren't able to agree on the facts, or that that conversation is not proceeding constructively, I'm be happy to try to help. You can contact me by email in public or private, or find me as Diziet on irc. (In a complex codebase like Xen there will always be overlap or interference between different maintainers' bailiwicks, so we definitely do need to be able to come to some kind of agreement, rather than everyone insisting on their own authority in what they regard as their own area.)
