When launching either of the development environments, you are probably seeing a warning message like this.

I believe the problem is that Hashicorp has chosen to no longer host the base images that we rely on (outside of paying enterprise customers.) The Packer, Artifact Registry and Terraform Enterprise (Legacy) features of > Atlas will no longer be actively developed or maintained and will be fully > decommissioned on Friday, March 30, 2018. Please see our guide on building > immutable infrastructure with Packer on CI/CD for ideas on implementing > Packer and Artifact Registry features yourself and the Upgrading From > Terraform Enterprise (Legacy) guide to migrate to the new Terraform > Enterprise. If you already have the base images downloaded, do not delete them! The development environments will continue to work as long as you have those images. The problem is that new users will no longer be able to download these images. And ultimately I am suspect that future updates will occur on these base images. Is everyone experiencing this problem? Does anyone have any other details to share on this? I am concerned that this is going to force us into some significant work in the short-term to ensure that our development environments continue to work. I have some alternative options to discuss, but I want to make sure we have all the information on what's happening before discussing those.
