Lets not get ahead of ourselves. 3.0.3 is the current stable release of
Xen. 3.0.4 is not finished/released and 3.0.5 hasn't even begun development.
Until released its premature to say that we'll release them as FC6
updates. As with most Xen updates, 3.0.4 is painful because we'll need to
upgrade the complete hypervisor, kernel & userspace stack all in one go....
yet again.... because of ABI changes between HV & userspace. There have
also been many control stack changes in the userspace of 3.0.4 which need
extensive testing before allowing them anywhere near FC6.
So /if/ 3.0.4 becomes available for FC6, it'll only be after a decent spell
of stabalization & testing in rawhide. 3.0.5 is anybody's guess because
there's no clear timeline for it & no really firm development roadmap from
upstream Xen yet.
