Red Hat and related distributions (Fedora, CentOS) are switching to 
KVM. I don't know if the switch says anything about Xen's long-term 
non-Red Hat prospects -- but if you're commited to Xen, Red Hat is 
definitely not the way to go.

Debian stable (lenny) has good Xen support, and it's likely to be 
around for a while. I suspect the LTS versions of Ubuntu are in the 
same boat.
