Why? How does this generate revenue for CyberusTech? What is the long term goal?

Those are good questions. I don’t understand why you were downvoted.

To answer: We are offering service contracts and contract engineering services around virtualization, KVM and a couple of other topics.

The long term goal for this specific project is to support the security goals our customers have and to enable a couple of KVM features in Virtualbox as well. We plan to keep this updated with upstream Virtualbox and KVM.

Please upstream this code. That ensures this work will live forever with better maintenance without you all having to chase upstream vbox AND will be easier to justify use if it's an included vbox component. I would find it difficult to justify using this to my bosses "lets just go use this custom fork of vbox" isn't going to fly for most.

so, the plan is to take on docker hub?

edit: nevermind. i assumed you were a team inside oracle.

We're offering commercial support. We can also help with graphics virtualization and other topics (e.g. performance tuning and automated testing in real world scenarios).
