Hi,

this is just a warning for those that have qubes-dom0-security-testing enabled
and did not upgrade yet.

Besides breaking dispVM functionality [1] I also had a strange
unexpected hard reboot since I upgraded to xen-4.6.6-37.
I don't know the root cause of the reboot but it _might_ be related
to the xen update.

So if you enabled the dom0 security-testing repo you might want to
avoid upgrading just yet.

I'm not having this issue, I use 3.2 and only testing repo i enable is the security one. Also i've been posting in this thread https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/rpzprvCQz9g but i'm not even sure I have the same type of dispvm problems as the other users.
