I've contacted directly all the companies with oVirt downstreams I was
aware of.
I also contacted almost all the universities that asked for help in this
mailing list.
I ended up contacting the major RHEL derivatives distributions.
So far nobody stepped in to take an active role on the oVirt project.
I saw some patches coming from individual contributors here and there but
no company investment so far.

Yes, oVirt has an open governance:
https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/governance.html
Right now in the oVirt board other than Red Hat there's a member of the
Caltech university https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/board.html
