I wonder if the license change also applies to HCL? Which I'm seeing more and more use of in open source projects unrelated to IaC.

  no, it and a ton of other things in their GH org are still MPL (for now): https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl-lang/blob/main/LICENSE https://github.com/hashicorp/hcl-lang/blob/main/LICENSE including, confusingly https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary/blob/main/LICENSE https://github.com/hashicorp/boundary/blob/main/LICENSE which I would have thought would have fallen into the same "but AWS gonna steal our shit" fearmongering as Nomad, did to say nothing of the future in which AWS offers Managed Vagrant™ :eyeroll:

    That last link clearly says BSL though

      Well, my comment clearly was made before they made the change. I wonder if my linking to it actually tipped them off, or do they really have so many products that they couldn't check each one was converted? Having this delay makes me now more concerned that they're going to "catch" more of the MPL ones and relicense them, too
