It looks like the great KVM vs Xen debate has taken an interesting twist. For a while now others have speculated that KVM will replace Xen as the defacto choice of a virtualization solution in Linux distributions. It makes sense for the Linux OSVs to make Linux the hypervisor instead of adding an abstraction layer underneath Linux as happens with Xen. Now Fedora seems to be skipping a release with Xen in it due to some shipping deadlines for Fedora 10 and the transition in the Xen camp to the standards based paravirt-ops. It should be interesting to see how this one works out.
