I think from a project point of view when integrations are not being maintained by external projects, we should have a home within the Apache CloudStack community to keep them alive and it makes it easy for ACS contributors to work on it. There is nothing wrong with other providers/plugins being brought in by contributors if there is interest and demand in the community. We've done this before already, when the Kubernetes project removed providers from their codebase we created a new home for it within ACS project to be maintained and used by the ACS community: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-kubernetes-provider Can you reconsider your vote? Or, is that a -1 binding vote (i.e. a veto)? Thanks.

Second, there are many integrations, is terraform the one to pick for using cloudstack from the view of the ASF? A "plugin" for a software developed outside of ASF? What about puppet, ansible, chef? The imbalance of this view results to a -1 from me.
