FYI…

If you are using the default terraform installation in GitHub actions then this update will affect you. Basically, terraform is being removed from the ubuntu-latest image…

Question about using static remote state. https://atmos.tools/core-concepts/components/terraform/brownfield#hacking-remote-state-with-static-backends

I have a very basic MVP based on the simple tutorial. • Terraform component wttr I have set up abstract inheritance with static remote_state. • Atmos abstract component weather-report-abstract based on wttr component with static remote state overriding an output location • Atmos component weather-report-disneyland inherits from weather-report-abstract I am using the terraform.output function to reference the output from the static component. • Atmos component hello-world which uses weather-report-disneyland output to do some string concat But when run, its not using the static values at all

Regarding the migration from the cloudposse/terraform-aws-components repo to the new github org (https://github.com/cloudposse-terraform-components/) – Currently, the reference modules within the terraform-aws-components repo are not only a) denying PRs (and auto closing them), but also b) aren’t referencing the new component locations, so it’s not clear where or how we can or should contribute back to your modules, or which ones we should be consuming (from a future-proofing perspective). Can we get clarification on:

  1. If/when the cloudposse/terraform-aws-components will start consuming the new component locations?
  2. What the specific guidance is during this transition period for PRs for your modules?
