I believe the RHEL 5.1 update is slated to include a newer Xen, possibly
3.1.
I don't see how it could be 3.. Fedora Core 7 is only up to 3.0.4. And
at the Xen presentation by RedHat I visited last month, they were very
clear that stability and consistency of software is a big, big, big deal
in the RHEL world., and I don't think they've had enough time to really
test the released 3.1 code.

When is 5.1 due to be released? The 5.x updates to RHEL are fairly significant - service packs, rather than simple bug fixes..

I'm running my test machines with CentOS 4 and a xen-unstable compiled
from source.  Obviously you wouldn'twant to do that for production
machines, but it works well for me.
I use CentOS 4.5 with the Xensource 3.1.0 kernel, which works well.

I need to upgrade :-)
Heh. The switch to CentOS 4.5/RHEL 4.5 is significant. Also, if you need non-RHEL versions of things, I really like the centosplus repository for far more recent but compatible versions of PHP, MySQL, and RedHat based kernels with NTFS turned on.
