Our Release Heroes

Major ATTA BOY/GIRL! in full effect this week to the good folks below for their efforts and contributions in making sure K9s is better for all of us!

She Can't Take Much More Capt'n!!

Background

Thanks to all of you for supporting K9s and being avid fans. I am truly humbled and amazed by your continued kindness and support!! As we're nearing K9s second anniversary, the project has reached over 10k stars and 384k downloads! That said, while these numbers sound stunning, there is another number on this project that is not so and that is number of sponsors 😿.

There Are Some That Call Me... Alpha?

I'd like to introduce a new member of the K9s pack, the main dog, aka k9sAlpha. This is going to be a licensed version of K9s. The current plan is to offer a tiered license scheme starting at $10/month. K9s𝞪 will provide fixes, enhancements, further integrations and a bunch of new features that have been sitting in the back burner...

So what does this entail?

The current k9s branch will be in feature freeze
K9s𝞪 users will need to purchase a license from our store
Active sponsors and contributors will get a K9s𝞪 license
Documentation, binaries, issue trackers, will be provisioned under a new K9s𝞪 site

Given any license schemes are meant to be hacked/broken, we're not going to over complicate things with call out to license servers and such to ensure the keys are legit. The current plan is to email out your license keys and trusting our Gentlemen Agreement that you will not share or distribute your keys to other folks.

In the current economic climate, if you can't afford a K9s𝞪 license, we will provide you one on a case by case basis.

The process should be simple:

Acquire a license
Get a key via email
Store your key somewhere on disk
Download the K9s𝞪 binary
Administer your Kubernetes clusters with K9s𝞪
Rinse and repeat when your license expires

K9s𝞪 Needs You!

To this end, I'd like to enlist a few of you to help me validate license keys, K9s𝞪 store and site to ensure the flow well... flows!
If you are so inclined, please reach out for your shoe-phones and send me an email with why you want to participate. Folks with K9s chops in multi clusters env would be preferred. It should not take too much of your time to ensure all is cool, but want to make sure I have at least another 5 pairs of eyes to help out with the K9s𝞪 drop. My hope is to get an initial K9s𝞪 revision dropped before Santa comes around...

Pipe In!

By all means, this is a democracy and not a dictatorship! So... if you have better/other ideas or concerns please pipe in! Open an issue on the repo so we can track, discuss, opiniate and figure out the best course of action that will be fair to both K9s maintainers and users alike.
