There was a recent slashdot post about Xen:

  <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/>

  "Xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution
  of multiple guest operating systems ... and [we] are planning a
  FreeBSD 4.8 port in the near future..."

Would these people's scheme dovetail into DragonflyBSD?
