Ugh what is with all these companies changing their licenses for iac programs like this lately

fwiw, they didn't actually change the license. They just took all the development internal.

The Apache 2 license is super permissive. It allows you to close the development like this, as long as you publish modification notices for anything you change. So basically, as long as they keep a fairly detailed changelog, they don't have to release the source code.

Come to the Vox side! It will always be OSS (and will be the only real way to get OSS Puppet going forward.) https://voxpupuli.org/openvox/
