I'm so angry about that license change, as it makes impossible to use Vagrant anymore. For example the version of Vagrant in Debian is stuck to the pre-license change commit and Debian doesn't publish Vagrant boxes for new releases anymore. I've yet to find a replacement, which works as seamlessly across different operating systems.

Yeah, I was actually participating in a soft-fork for a while but I think the project ran out of steam. My guess is that it's very hard to pay attention to something that you don't use every day, so they let it drift. But if you ever hear of someone starting up again, let me know

I'm aware that I, too, could be the someone but like I said it's hard to dedicate all the time and energy when the last time I used vagrant was years ago

I also just remembered that I haven't revisited the forks list to see if there's some meaningful activity https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/forks?include=active&pa...
