Hmm.. is XenAPI the correct name? At least earlier it was used to refer to the
xend stuff in the traditional Xen.
'XAPI' name has been used for the newer XenServer/XCP xapi/xe stuff?
xapi is the name of the daemon in XenServer/XCP. The API itself is called
XenAPI, and yes, there is a implementation in xend too. XenAPI is the correct
name, because it's the API that we're meeting, not a specific implementation
of it.
