Novell Red Hat simmerin' over Xen

Hmmm, my take, Xen is compelling enough to stand on its own, even if Novell or Red Hat does'nt take it up, someone else will. Let the commercial distros forget that fact at their own peril ;)

Xen is already moving with VMware...

an excerpt:

""With the help of IBM, we made a technology breakthrough that accommodates both," Crosby said in an interview Thursday. The two companies sat down together to work through the problem during the recent Linux Symposium, held in late July in Ottawa, Canada. Jack Lo, VMware's senior director of R&D, agrees. A group got together at the Symposium "to put together an interface to the Linux kernel. There's been a lot of activity" to reach agreement, he said."

Oooh... did I notice a 3 letter acronym that look reaaaally familiar.....
