We have released xen (4.4.x) for CentOS-6 in production and we maintain
it via the Virtualization SIG, which uses this list.  The released
version lives on mirror.centos.org and the RPMs are here:

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/xen4/x86_64/

We also have a TESTING branch of xen 4.4 and 4.6rc for CentOS-7 in our
Community Build System (CBS) here:

4.4:
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-44-testing/x86_64/os/

4.6rc:
http://cbs.centos.org/repos/virt7-xen-46-testing/x86_64/os/

Those are not really production ready .. but do currently work.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
