There is complete support for Hyper-V in OpenStack since "Folsom release":http://www.openstack.org/software/folsom/press-release (September 27, 2012) so it is high time to do something for OpenNebula. OpenStack is supporting iscsi targets for hyper-v through cinder and thus, live migration.
A good start would be to look at "OpenStack documentation":http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/hyper-v-virtualization-platform.html and "nova hyper-v virt driver code":https://github.com/openstack/nova/tree/master/nova/virt/hyperv so see how communication is handled through wmi.

To grow to a larger community, OpenNebula must support also Hyper-V on its infrastructure and migrate. Besides the update of Hyper-V drivers from 3.2 to 3.8, it should be native and not optional on ecosystem.
A faster feature to implement is being able to import VHD files to ONE, just with an additinal qemu-img convert -f vpc -O raw on image register.
