I mailed Hashicorp to ask about this:

"Thanks for reaching out. The provider was archived because we launched
the Terraform Registry last year which allows vendors to host and
publish their own providers. We'd be happy to work with you to transfer
the repository over to a CloudStack Github organization where you can
build and publish releases to the registry.

We'd also like to have CloudStack join our Technology partnership
program so I can mark your Terraform provider as verified."

So I think we don't need to do much technology-wise.

I don't use Terraform and don't have a major stake in it, but I would
hate to see the Provider being removed from Terraform.

Should we request https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-terraform at
infra and then host the Provider there?
