This is of course best answered by someone from Redhat.

But if you want to work with 2.6 now, why not install an R+D system
running Fedora 2?
RPMs available from: http://www2.wantstofly.org/gfs/

That's the concept of Fedora - a faster release cycle, so you can try
out leading edge features, and of course a closer relationship with the
community.
This leaves RHEL to be more stable, less frequent release cycle,with a
much longer time till End of Life.
I think it s fair bet that RHEL 4 will have 2.6.
