Summary
Cloud architect Andrija Panić has released OpenVDDK, an open-source, independently written replacement for VMware's Virtual Disk Development Kit library, which VMware restricted to partners in August. Because tools such as virt-v2v, nbdkit, Proxmox VE and Apache CloudStack depend on that library to read VM disks, its restriction hampered migrations.
