    I just used VMware's OVFtool to convert the Fusion VM into a single file OVF which can be more easily imported into many VMWare environments like my VCenter 5 system. Is there some place I could upload the file to so that you could share it with your other packages? You have created a really cool tool here and I'm in the process of setting it up. I thought I'd try to give back a little.

    Otherwise, you could export an OVF/OVA from Fusion, I'm pretty certain that there is an option in Fusion to export a VM to an OVF file.

    Thanks,

      Nyle,

      Thanks and I’ll see if I can export OVF from fusion to make that process easier in the future. I’m about to release 1.13 so that would be a good time to upload a new image. Let me know how it goes, the biggest problem people usually have is support for an odd network device. Hope it goes well.
