OpenStack is an open-source foundation with lots of potential competitors
working together to build a common infrastructure. As long as they abide by
the contributor license agreement anyone is welcome to participate in our
open-source community. So, OpenStack doesn't have an "alliance" with V
by applications.
I've been following diskimage-builder that is part of TripleO, but haven't

For windows, you could add TCP port 3389 to your security group and enable
