I suggested to Joel recently that perhaps we could have a virtualisation
round table session.

The idea is to get someone to stand and talk for 10/15 minutes about a
particular platform, and then have a Q/A comparing 4-5 different
virtualisation solutions
 * Xen
 * VMWare
 * VirtualBox
 * KVM
 * QEMU
 * VServers
etc.

So is there any interest in such a session, and do we have enough
volunteers to cover atleast 4 different solutions?
