Sounds like exactly what everyone expected when Mitchell announced Hashicorp. It's interesting to me that there is such a sharp line between open source projects that are buddy-buddy with proprietary closed services and ones that aren't. i.e. Node.js is all buddy-buddy with Microsoft, Ruby on Rails by-and-large isnt (you can use it with closed services, but the community doesn't have much sympathy for you). Puppet is "enterprise-friendly," Chef seems much less so. AngularJS is for corporate drones, Ember.js is for startups.

Maybe this dichotomy is just in my head, but I usually get a vibe within around five minutes of browsing a project's homepage what kind of project is. There's only a few I still consider to be on the fence: Vagrant used to be one. Clojure is another.
