Indeed, the Xen port wasn't ready when that 2.6.20 update was pushed. Juan 
Quintela committed it to Fedora's CVS in the meantime, and it should be in the 
next update, which is probably going to be out next week (according to Chuck 
Ebbert's reply last time someone asked, I don't have the archive link right 
now, sorry).

According to the Fedora kernel maintainers, there are no plans to drop Xen 
right now (at least that was the latest from Dave Jones's blog).
