Hello, just wanted to ask two questions. I coudln`t find an answer on
the web.

Is there a windows version of xen? I want to download, install and test
xen on windows as host and use a paravirtualized linux then. But I can`t
find a windows binarry to download on the page?

About the license... All websites say xen is open source (GPL)... All is
open source not just a part.

I don`t want to be insolent but... Why there are paid versions of xen?
Is there only the full source available for all versions but not all
binarys? Only the starter edition is free and the enterprise edition
binarys cost money?

So, if it`s fully open source... What could prevent someone to create a
fork and to provide binarys of all versions?
