I got really excited about Consul when I read about it here many years ago. I wrote a ruby library for it (https://github.com/WeAreFarmGeek/diplomat) which became rather popular, and was used by quite a few large organisations. Hashicorp sent me a care package to thank me - a T-shirt and a card signed by Mitchell himself - I wore that T-Shirt until it was threadbare and I still have the card. Its a small thing on the grand scale of things, but it's something I look back on with pride.

Well done to the Hashicorp team for getting to where they are now - by building something new and useful, and by fundamentally not being greedy.

is this the same team that got greedy recently - which then lead to forking Terraform - or there's been some personnel changes?
