What do others think about this? For example is it achievable as a feature, is it too early and better to wait for F16, and what else should we aim to do to make xen usable in Fedora?
Have you consider kvm? it's upstream since 2.6.20 and now its more ready than ever.
There are some good tutorials which should explain the difference between xen and kvm, particularly the performance and hardware requirements of each.
In any case, the question of whether KVM or Xen is best, is not really relevant to whether Xen Dom0 has a place in F15. Fedora will welcome any software that meets the packaging & licensing guidelines, and has someone who is willing to maintain it. So if people want to maintain Xen as an alternative virtualization option in Fedora, they're welcome todo so. KVM will of course remain the default virt host setup offered in the installer
