Anybody could me tell when CentoOS7 will have Xen support?

I hit some gotchas installing C7 as a DomU - graphics don't work like they do in CentOS 4/5/6.

I wrote up my experiences:

https://www.bfccomputing.com/installing-centos-7-on-xen/

It's currently working really well as a DomU (Fedora 20 Xen 4.4 is the Dom0) - much faster than C6 on the same hardware.

We will, at some point, have a CentOS-7 Dom0 kernel and support as part of the Virtualization SIG.

I am getting ready to build some testing 4.4.1-rc RPMs for CentOS-6 in the next few days. Once we stabilize those, building the same for CentOS-7 will be a next step.
