Hi,

I herewith declare xen-tools 4.2 as released:

  http://xen-tools.org/software/xen-tools/releases.html

Thanks to everyone who contributed bug-reports, bug-fixes, patches,
code or ideas!

Major changes compared to 4.2 RC1:

  * Tons of documentation improvements
  * Preliminary support for Ubuntu 11.04 Natty Narwhal and Debian 7.0 Wheezy
  * More robustness on exotic combinations of command-line options

It also already has been uploaded to Debian Unstable as 4.2-1 and I
expect that it will be included in the upcoming Debian 6.0 Squeeze
release expected around the end of the year.

I'll also try to provide packages via some PPA for Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid
and 10.10 Maverick in the near future.

The next goal is a major code refactoring, aiming towards

  * less code duplication
  * more modularity
  * more consistency over all included scripts and hooks.

		Kind regards, Axel
