No, the Nevada branch will continue as it's always been.  The prototype
ISO was based on build 75a since we need to have a base to stablize the
ISO around.  Our expectations is that we will be working on pushing out
revised bits via the package repository, perhaps as often as every two
weeks following the release of SXCE.

Again, we expect to have revised bits in the package repository on a
regular basis.  From those bits, creating a revised ISO should be a
fairly straighforward process.

By the way, although the ISO did not have the xVM dom0 bits, our
package repository will have them so stay tuned - we hope to provide
them shortly.
