I see no activity since June and @mleone87 hasn't made any public contributions since then either. @Tinyblargon do you have any insight here?

Not really, sorry.

Recently, I noticed that telmate.com now redirects to viapath.com, suggesting that there was a corporate takeover/merger, although this is just speculation.

I've forked to project under a different name with the intention to restart development since I'm not a maintainer of this project.

Thanks for the update, that could definitely explain the radio silence from the Telmate folks. I'd love to try and help you but my Go experience is somewhat lacking for complex projects such as this :/

@Tinyblargon Is it already possible to use your fork through terraform/opentofu by any chance ?
I'm currently facing the same issue as #283 and was wondering if I'd be able to run terraform for proxmox or if I should just give up and switch back to custom scripting

@lowlighter, I'm gonna try to get my testing cluster setup over the weekend to get the integration tests up and running and look into #283

@frostyfab, if you want, could you make a pull for #280 on https://github.com/Tinyblargon/proxmox-go-sdk

@Tinyblargon Hi, my commit is very outdated since the Telmate implementation has moved a lot.

I would recommend to get in touch with @loeken they created a repo which contains the fixes rebased on current Telmate main. See loeken/proxmox-api-go.

I can also tell you that we figured the Telmate project/company is basically dead and a lot of people moved over to bpg/terraform-provider-proxmox without a lot of hiccups. So from my understanding the decision at this point is basically to maintain Telmate API for the foreseeable future yourself or migrate if possible.

In Telmate/terraform-provider-proxmox Issue 863 you'll find some relevant discussion/code.

@mleone87, based on all the activity today, can we assume you're back as the maintainer? We are happy to have you back! 🥳

Oh I was assuming this is another fork? Would be great if somebody would maintain the Telmate project tho...

I had some problems with notification going to the wrong mail + some time less to have a look, but I'm there!
