Probably true regarding entirely new features, but I think just keeping up with all the different API changes across the modules would be a massive amount of work in itself.
- jakozaur 3y agoDo not do blindly follow API changes in long term. Provide some tool to verify compatibility, but in general the goal is for open-source to be the standard, not HashiCorp flavour. Your goal is to convince the most popular Hashicorp providers that you are the standard and build the community.

- count 3y agoThat work is still under MPL (Terraform Providers, which are mostly community maintained / developed). Hashi owns and is the primary developer of the terraform tool itself, but not the 'keeping track of all the different API changes' part.
