Pulling Gnome off of RedHat
If X and Gnome are already installed on RedHat it can be tricky to remove them with yum. However, a friend of mine reports success using pirut to remove them. It warns that it is about to remove itself, but it does seem to work. Packages that are not dependencies of the X and Gnome package tree are not removed.

Red Hat's Virtualization Plan for 2009
RedHat is moving away from Xen and towards KVM. KVM will be available in a package called RHEV-H: a stateless hypervisor, with a tight footprint of under 128MB, which presents a libvirt interface to the management tier. Enterprise servers will no longer need to go through an installation process, and will instead be able to boot RHEV-H from flash or a network server, and be able to immediately begin servicing virtual guests. KVM will also be native to RHEL5.4. RedHat will also be working with Microsoft to certify hosting of Windows servers on top of their virtualization platform.
