</div>btw.<br>
proffessional curiosity:<br>
why?<br>
<br>
I mean why XenServer Express.<br>
there are so many virtualization products out there,<br>
even LINBIT has one ;)<br>
<br>
not anything pro or contra your choice,<br>
I'm just curious what your reasons are.<br>
<br>
or do you happen to work for citrix?<br>

</div>now. I suppose that "you" was me.<br>
I write a lot on (this) mailing list,<br>
so, do you mind to put me in context with a reference to that message?<br>

<br>
</div>you are not supposed to change those.<br>
we did that for you.<br>

<br>
</div>would you like to post your (working and not working) patches for review?<br>
that makes it much easier to comment on them ;-)<br>
<br>
the drbd version you are using would be worth mentioning as well...<br>
<br>
and, before you start patching drbd yourself,<br>
why not ask us to do the integration work for you,<br>
and patch it if necessary?<br>
<br>
if you have any problems integrating drbd,<br>
contact LINBIT.<br>
<br>
I mean, that is what we are here for, right?<br>
