Just released :)

Cinder is included in Folsom Preview from the start
OVS support in Quantum won't come until RHEL 6 kernel supports it, which
should be in the very near future. So look for updates soon for
openvswitch userspace packages and quantum OVS sub-packages.
RHEL 6.4 version of libvirt will have OVS support built into it as well.
So just hold tight, it's around the corner :)
