I’m listening to this episode of @changelog on #OpenTF and I’m increasingly convinced that any type of tech infrastructure will eventually be #OpenSource. The unsolved problem does remain funding these projects. Often the model is either large corp backing or VC funding. The latter may well just set expectations too high in terms on ROI. https://overcast.fm/+HZUd4r73M

I've been maintaining the Terraform snap for the last 18 months or so (and about 11000 of you are using it! 🚀 )

Today I published the first beta build of OpenTF too - if you want to give it a spin check it out! https://snapcraft.io/opentf

following the #Terraform saga and the new #OpenTF fork? Join me for a live stream
at OpenObservability Talks on the 18th to discuss it, and we'll try and understand together what it means to us, the users and the community. I'll be joined by @omryhay from @opentforg to learn more about the fork.

Great to see that Terraform has already been forked with, seemingly, some decent momentum behind it after Hashicorp pulled the rug out with their "business source license" bullshit.

The duplicate entry have been removed :terraform_logo:
Instead I added #opentf -> :opentf_logo: 😋

Keep us inform thru the github issue if it solve the issue. https://github.com/hachyderm/community/issues/477

Pundits seem bullish on @opentforg & down on @HashiCorp. Hard disagree from @Sageable. We talked w/ both sides & our Market Brief has balance & nuance.

New fork of Terraform created by OpenTF in response to HashiCorp license change https://www.fosslife.org/opentf-forks-terraform #HashiCorp #Terraform #OpenTF #licensing #OpenSource

https://www.isopentfopenyet.dev/ Yes!

#OpenTF fork code is finally public. it's *pre-alpha*, but already has 465 stars, 13 forks and most importantly, 14 contributors. and MPL!
Note the disclaimer: it might put you in violation of the #Terraform Registry ToS, if that's where you fetch your providers or modules from.

Oh look the OpenTF repo is live!

#terraform #opentf

The #OpenTF project has officially opened up their repositories!

Just looking at the "pulse" for the last month shows that they've been working really hard behind the scenes to resolve any issues that came from the rename, as well as updating the docs. They've also created a new slack network for the OpenTF project.

This is such an amazing time for the #opensource #terraform community!

#terraform #opensource

https://github.com/opentffoundation/opentf

#OpenTF Foundation’s goal is to maintain the #Terraform project's code under a fully #opensource license.

“… instead of going forward with the BUSL license change, switch Terraform back to a truly open source license and commit to keeping it that way forever going forward.”

#InfoQ #DevOps

DevOps Paradox hosts Viktor Farcic and Darin Pope had an interesting discussion on the #HashiCorp decision to relicense its #opensource projects to non-OSS #BSL license. Worth a listen 👍
(plus a mention of my guest appearance and podcast 💙)

#DevOps #terraform #relicensing #opentf

Following #hashicorp license change announce, #OpenTF is created to fork #Terraform, but what about #Packer, #Vagrant which I use, or even #Vault or #Consul and #Nomad?
#freesoftware #devops #sysadmin #opensource

So while everyone is waiting for #OpenTF to figure out what they’re doing, does anyone need any help maintaining their providers, or otherwise coordinating with the #terraform community? A few of us created https://github.com/terra-farm back in 2017 to have community maintenance of terraform related codebases. It was modeled after the https://sous-chefs.org and https://voxpupuli.org communities.

If we can help, drop a request at https://github.com/terra-farm/meta/issues

HashiCorp got the wrong message from the Terraform fork by OpenTF 🤦 and is doubling down on being an ass.

They changed their ToS to state:

"You may download providers, modules, policy libraries and/or other Services or Content from this website solely for use with, or in support of, HashiCorp Terraform. "
