I'm only going to say that the plugin is working well with the traces
that we've thrown at it so far, so I'd say it's past the prototype
phase. :-P

As I was telling to Andrew on xen-devel, there is indeed some room for
improvement, e.g., the content of the 'Info' column is a bit "raw", and
can be made less cryptic and hence more useful.

To me (but this is just my personal opinion) a rather interesting thing
is whether something like this plugin should live in its own project or
will it be better be integrated in either Xen or KS sources...

And I'll now leave any further comments to Giuseppe himself. :-)

Thanks and Regards
