And the goal currently (as I understand it) is to move to every even point release, if that release works within the gcc/glibc parameters for that CentOS Version. So, xen 4.8 will be the one following 4.6, etc. That means that the older versions (ie 4.4 on CentOS-6) will be orphaned if someone from the community does not step up, join the SIG, and maintain the packages. Specifically for Xen-4.4.x on CentOS-6, I will maintain that so long as upstream xenproject.org continues to produce XSA patches for Xen-4.4. Once xenproject.org stops support for xen-4.4 then an announcement will be made and that branch will stop being updated. Thanks, Johnny Hughes
