One has to wonder how much collaboration was prevented by having Hashicorp refuse to hear their users or accept PRs. At some point, opensource or not, people just stop bothering.

Was thinking the same. Would be great if they provided more "experimental" features with a flag or ENV. Then the default cli could be the "comparability mode". Cheers and good luck to the project!

People could have forked terraform before too.

It’s being forked only now because there is big money at stake.

I’m gonna wear my cynical hat and say: it never was about collaboration.

Seriously: people are falling for the collaboration meme. Isn’t anybody wondering “why now?”

Why not a year ago, why not a year in the future?

A year ago most people probably wouldn't have known or cared about a small new fork and I don't think it would have gotten the community support OpenTF has now.

A year ago big money wasn’t at risk of being lost. What a coincidence, huh?
