Well...

I can't speak for anyone else, but I could start by looking at the 
Solaris Zones module and extending it to Xen and/or VMWare if that 
could be done, but I don't really have a ESX or GSX license.  I could 
download the demo, but this probably won't be done for more than 30 
days after I install it...  is the basic configuration the same for 
both servers?  Are you thinking of workstation support as well, is 
that configuration similar to the servers?  I'm flexible.
