You clearly have missed the news, VMware became the corporate bitch of hypervisors.
Openstack/cloudstack/proxmox or for the real masochists, pure libvirt/qemu is the way to go now.

This is nothing new.
To get the "free" product key for the ESX hypervisor, you needed to open an account, answer about 20 very personal questions, and sacrifice a goat. -
@electrineer I had no idea this existed! Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
I am planning to migrate from the painstaking openstack setup (which I am not happy about) to something else. For now cloudstack seems to be my preferred choice but I need to dedicate time to investigate properly and that is a big luxury nowadays.
