Centos 5.4 just updated the kernel to the latest RHEL 5 kernel (/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-164.2.1.el5). Centos 5 is what I run on my servers.

I'm thinking it might be better in the long term to switch to KVM even though OpenVZ's container virtualization is really all I need and I really like it. It bothers me a bit to have to be out of sync (even though it probably will work just fine on the older kernel).

Is there an active effort to get kernel changes for OpenVZ into the kernel.org sources?

Or, has Linus vetoed this possibility preferring some other virtualization instead? Seems to me there should be room for a container virtualization approach like OpenVZ even if full hardware virtualization is supported for those needing that.
