+ <p>&os; supports the Xen hypervisor, with DomU support since
+ &os; 8.0 and Dom0 available since &os; 11.0. The
+ &os; Handbook was lacking instructions on how to run a Xen
+ host and VMs. The steps were outlined in the &os; wiki, but
+ needed some extra bits of text from the upstream Xen wiki in
+ order to form a complete guide. The new handbook section
+ briefly explains what Xen is, how it differs from other
+ hypervisors, and what features are currently available in
+ &os;. It then goes on to describe how to set up the Dom0, as
+ well as detailing the guest VM support known as DomU.</p>
+
+ <p>Reviewers Nikolai Lifanov, Roger Pau Monné, and Warren Block
+ provided valuable feedback on the initial version in
+ Phabricator. Additional corrections were found by Björn
+ Heidotting while translating the section into German.</p>

+ <task>More options for the Dom0 and DomU could be provided.</task>
+
+ <task>People should test these instructions on their hardware
+ and provide feedback. This would also help us get better
+ testing of the Xen port for &os;.</task>
