as someone notes above, all Xen versions (including enterprise) are OSS so you can build and run them without paying for commercial support. the packages are just the supported, pre-built, “easy” path
VMWare has very little OSS, especially for their equivalents of Xen server. Id support KVM and co before VMWare just on those grounds alone
