Minutes

• Actions from previous meeting
  • Repository will be created today
• Terraform
  • Day 1 problems are OK, but how well will this be maintained? Hard to tell at the moment
  • TD: We should try it out... If they're equivalent, we just need to change our provider location. If not, then what?
  • JB: Nothing we can do except see what happens...
  • JB: Wording of Terraform licence leaves it up to Hashicorp to decide whether you're competing or not. This might be a problem.
  • TD: we might have an alternative...?
  • MR: does this represent a business model that we should guard against?
  • PB: we should wait and see...
  • JB: agreed.
  • PSB: Hashicorp current position... They've gone too far and rowed back
• Closing issues
  • 103: Action for core team to check that code still works.
  • 91: TD to check where documentation is and report back.
• AOB
  • JB to present on invariants next week.

Actions:

• SK: Create issue on core backlog to check issue 103.
