<snip> > Xen wont be in RHEL6 - KVM will What insight can be offered on this change? Is this a business or technical or both decision?
The main issue seems to be cost of porting fixes and Xen itself to newer kernels. The fact that Xen did not get into mainstream kernel made the costs higher and higher. KVM got into mainstream kernel and thus has more eyes on it.
XEN will never make it into the mainstream kernel.
