Comments moved to <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37133054">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37133054</a>, which is currently on the front page.<p>Exception: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37138642">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37138642</a> was actually about this article, not the general topic, so I moved it to be a reply to <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37135007">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37135007</a> instead.
Please please pretty please use anything other than Medium. A paid subscription banner on half my screen looks bad on your corporate blog.<p></rant>
>[MPL's] only limitation is that if you modify the source code of Terraform itself, you have to release those modifications under the same MPL license.<p>Is it possible past releases of terraform having the MPL license means the creator cannot release it under a commercial license? e.g. by using the license you can't escape it for future versions and make it commercial, or does that not apply to the creator/owner.<p>I know what i'm hoping for is a pipe dream but once you start an open source project using an open source agreement for use it really shouldn't be possible to make it closed source. Open source means anyone could contribute and profiting on someone else's contributions feels very, very wrong.
