[CNCF TOC] Vendor Neutrality - Providers

Closed this issue · 1 comments

URL: https://docs.crossplane.io/v1.18/concepts/providers/

The Providers page does not make clear which providers are 'provided' by a vendor or are community managed.

Please outline the difference between community and vendor-provided providers, migrate the registry to a vendor neutral registry for all community providers and provide information on each providers are supported.

Typically, a project will have a page that transparently lists commercial offerings.

Ref: cncf/toc#1397

As mentioned in cncf/toc#1397 (comment), we have updated the governance to clearly define what a community extension project is and defined policies that they all must comply with.

See https://github.com/crossplane/crossplane/blob/main/GOVERNANCE.md#community-extension-projects for those details.

The Crossplane documentation has been updated to only use/reference community extensions that are in compliance with the new governance policies defined by the steering committee. All of the extensions mentioned in the Crossplane docs are in a neutral community registry now. Closing this issue as complete 🙇‍♂
