The Github repository for the community fork of Terraform (called OpenTF) has been made public. If you use any third-party tooling (SpaceLift, Scalr, Env0, Terraspace, Terragrunt, Atlantis, Digger, etc.) you will probably want to plan a switch to using OpenTF instead of Terraform to remain license compliant. Well, it is actually more about the third-party tool's compliance. From this point forward, their documentation can't tell you to install a version of Terraform higher then 1.5.5. You will start to see them transition over to suggesting OpenTF instead, once a stable release is available.

OpenTF plans to remain feature compatible with Terraform, but I could see, in the future, new features being added to OpenTF that third-party tool providers require.

I wouldn't compile and use the current OpenTF code for production or even development use yet, but if you wanted to contribute to the project, now is your chance.

The first stable release should be coming by October 1st. https://github.com/opentffoundation/opentf/milestone/3

OpenTF fork (prepare for alpha) is now available at the GH Repository here:

Take a look at the issues tab to see some of the live RFCs and discussions happening. Lots of things like the use of tf in the binary/name and bring their own registry.
