+      <p>Add FreeBSD kernel support for Xen Paravirtualised kernels.
+	This project has finally reached a "Proof of Concept" stage
+	on the branch
+	<a href="http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/projects/amd64_xen_pv/">
+	  projects/amd64_xen_pv</a></p>
+
+      <p>Testing and bug reports on various configurations is
+	encouraged!  The author is also seeking bounties to help
+	complete the effort and assess potential interest.  Please
+	send email if interested.</p>
+
+      <p>PV kernels are still supported by most cloud providers for a
+	range of configurations, although they are expected to be
+	phased out in the future.</p>
