Xenner as it has been is mostly a proof of concept. Gerd has been doing
work to merge Xenner into QEMU itself, but I believe he has that on
hold while more important changes are done. So I don't know when Xenner
might be fully merged. It certainly won't be in RHEL5/6, since it is
just a proof of concept at this stage, not enterprise quality maturity

I ask about Xenner because of what I saw in announcement of RHEL 5.4 in
this article:
http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2009/09/red-hat-moves-forward-wit...
It implied that Xenner was available for 5.4 and therefore I assumed it
would be in RHEL-6 as well. So I guess from what you are saying is that
it won't be officially supported but would be available at are own risk.
