samwyse, The primary reason I picked Ubuntu was to avoid any licensing issues. Offering something like this up to anyone who wants it, means you don't have any control over its use/deployment. RHEL, OEL & SLES all require licenses. I could do a VM for Fedora or Suse CE. But I don't think either of those would get past your data center manager's objections however.
AsianUX I am not familiar with, but I scanned the licensing and it appears no rules are broken for personal use. I would leave any issues to your employer and their supplier as to any corporate use. But AsianUX intrigues me. I don't mind creating the VM and providing it to you. But for 'take it, its free' I prefer to stick with Ubuntu for the reasons above.
