AFAIK:
- RHEL 5.4 is out already. Centos is still 5.3 though
- RHEL5.4 still has Xen included and supported.
- Gitco has newer Xen packages for RHEL/Centos5. Obviously not
supported by RH though.
- RHEL has Windows PV drivers for both Xen and KVM, but I don't think
they're widely tested yet. Looking at their Xen PV drivers (which
can't be used for system drive/C), I'd rather use GPLPV instead.
So if you want to use RHEL to host Windows domUs, I suggest you go with:
- RHEL 5.4
- Xen 3.4.1 from Gitco (http://www.gitco.de/repo/)
- GPLPV
