    future.

    If some of the most popular DOSP-relicensed projects had started
    out under DOSP rather than Open Source terms from the outset,
    would they have attracted the same level of interest and adoption?

  \item \textbf{Why has a fork of Terraform attracted so many
      contributions and so much interest compared to forks of other
      projects?} % TODO: See ref:091db178 -- maybe this question
                 % should be recast.

    It's too early to say whether the OpenTofu project will broadly
    outcompete Terraform among various audiences, but it's clear that
    this fork started off with a bang, immediately garnering
    substantial interest, sponsorships and financial commitments, and
    endorsements from various companies and developers.  However, Open
    Source forks of other HashiCorp projects are comparatively
    stagnant and underpublicized.  Similarly, other BUSL relicensing
    events did not seem to result in highly active forks (although
    some may have increased interest in existing Open Source
    competitors to the relicensed projects).

    What's special about the OpenTofu effort, or about Terraform or
    its community, that could account for these differences? Did
    Terraform's market share in its niche play a large role? Was
    Terraform particularly indispensable for its users in comparison
    to some other relicensed projects?
