I sympathize, but if wolfi is oss, please update docs and downloads to use a separate registry then your commercial one for distribution.

else, frankly you claimed wolfi is oss, get customers to use your registry, and then bait and switched your early adopters.

aka, major version upgrades at random, have fun!

Wolfi packages are served from https://packages.wolfi.dev/os which can be used with apk tools or apko.

The built Chainguard images are all on the cgr.dev registry.

Wolfi is completely OSS.

The policies regarding Chainguard Images have changed over time, so if there are docs that don't properly reflect this, please let me know and I'll get them updated.

let me rephrase that, wolfi is an oss container image distro without an image, you get to pay us for the image. but here's a our tooling cause we like to call it oss, have fun building. either have those oss images on a non commercial registry, or let's stop misleading folks about what this is, aka pay to play/use oci images. that all wolfi docs / blog posts reference a commercial registry while touting it as oss, is the definition of bait and switch.
