  Why? HCL itself is under the MPLv2, and the underpinning go-cty is under MIT. Both of these are perfectly reasonable licenses for even _commercial_ software to use, let alone open source.

    Lack of trust in the project's future with the impending sale to IBM.

      Why wouldn’t you just use it and fork it if there’s an issue? It’s largely just “finished” at this point. Not everything needs to be churned for years.
