I have said that I wills start maintaining the xen-44 branch for
security updates.  My first released package is xen-4.4.3-14.el6, which
is currently in the centos-virt6-xen-testing repo.

If there are no issues reported here, this version will be released to
CentOS-6.7 xen repo in a day or two.

The xenproject.org site says they will support xen-4.4 until March 2017
(http://bit.ly/1UAVsOX), so I will also roll in updates until then for
Xen-4.4.

As George stated in this post (http://bit.ly/1pZKE04), if you want to
stay on Xen-4.4 and not upgrade to Xen-4.6 (on CentOS-6) then you need
to install 'centos-release-xen-44' and then remove centos-release-xen.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
