One good reason for some folks to get discouraged to work with Xen:

Patches for fixes on builds last ages to get merged

In this case Mark Pryor <pryorm09@gmail.com> reported an issue and
offered a fix on October 8, 2015 [0]. That did not go in as Jan noted
it was probably not the right fix. Last year in November I provided
what I think is a proper replacement set which I think addressed Jan's
concerns.

***Four*** months later and Xen still does not compile with the latest
and greatest. I have to go digging out in my git basement somewhere
some fixes I last used to build Xen to try to test some new
features...

What's up folks? How can this process be made smoother, did I do
something wrong, what can I do to help better? What can you do to help
ensure these types of things don't fall through the cracks.
