### Note on dom0 and EOL ###
Dom0 is isolated from domUs. DomUs can access only a few interfaces,
such as Xen, device backends (in the dom0 kernel and in other VMs, such as the
NetVM), and Qubes tools (gui-daemon, qrexec-daemon, etc.). These components are
[security-critical], and we provide updates for all of them (when necessary),
regardless of the support status of the base distribution. For this reason, we
consider it safe to continue using a given base distribution in dom0 even after
it has reached end-of-life.
it has reached EOL (end-of-life).
