XenSource != Fedora. This article really has no relevance wrt to plans for
Xen and 2.6.20  in Fedora. We've not been sitting around waiting for 
XenSource to magically upgrade to a current kernel, and have Juan actively
working on the 2.6.20 forward port for Xen. Whether this will be done for
Fedora Core 5 is an open question, because FC5 is pretty close to end-of
life. We'll certainly see 2.6.20 based Xen in Fedora 7, and quite likely
in Fedora Core 6 during some errata.

Dan.
