Qubes R3.0 release notes

*this page is a draft for yet unreleased version*
This Qubes OS release is dedicated to the memory of Caspar Bowden.
New features since 2.0
----------------------
* Xen 4.4
* Qrexec 3
* Debian templates
* HAL (Hypervisor Abstraction Layer) - based on libvirt, opens a whole new
possibilities of using different hypervisors. Currently Qubes OS uses Xen.
* Xen 4.4 - many new features, but for us the most important is much more
mature libxl toolstack.
* Qrexec 3 - greatly improved performance by using direct VM-VM connections and
bigger buffers.
* Debian templates gets official support.
* Whonix templates
* Build system improvements
* Build system improvements - especially support for distribution-specific
plugins (makes supporting multiple distributions much easier) and building
templates using DispVM.
* Automated tests - makes much easier to find bugs, before its even shipped to users
