RHEL5 fully supports Xen, so Redhat will support Xen at least until 2014,
which is when RHEL5 goes EOL.

atm it looks like RHEL6 won't have Xen (dom0) included. RHEL6 will run as Xen domU (guest).

Novell SLES11 ships with Xen, and they seem to be actively working with Xen,
so I expect Novell continues to ship Xen in future products.
