VMWare ESXi 6.7 Open Source Disclosure Toolchain and Source Availability

[Humungo]

I couldn't see this within the VMWare Open Source Disclosure listings at: https://my.vmware.com/en/group/vmware/info?slug=datacenter_cloud_infrastructure/vmware_vsphere/6_7#o...

There's only open_source_license_VMware_ESXi_6.7.0GA.txt, without the normal Toolchain and Source ZIPs.

Just wondering whether release of this is due soon?

Looks like the downloads have been accidentally forgotten:

https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/6.7/rn/vsphere-esxi-vcenter-server-67-release-notes.html#o...

"The copyright statements and licenses applicable to the open source software components distributed in vSphere 6.7 are available at http://www.vmware.com. You need to log in to your My VMware account. Then, from the Downloads menu, select vSphere. On the Open Source tab, you can also download the source files for any GPL, LGPL, or other similar licenses that require the source code or modifications to source code to be made available for the most recent available release of vSphere."

Just in case anyone else wants to add a similar support request to get this resolved.

Unfortunately the first interpretation of support is as follows.... I have responded requesting Support re-interprets my original request.

Next response from support has directed me to 6.5 downloads. I have further nudged towards realising there is a missing download.

[Humungo · Accepted solution]

Following a series of Support emails and phone calls VMWare have now posted 2 new downloads:

https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?downloadGroup=ESXI670-OSS&productId=742

https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?downloadGroup=VC67-OSS&productId=742

I suspect the Toolchain Open Source Disclosure package (previously 4Gb) is still missing but I've closed out my support case as resolved for now.

Does anyone else think the Toolchain is missing (it's possible it's been rolled into the downloads above)?
