kubeflow
is kfctl dead?
it seems that kfctl is dead,
- kfctl channel in Kubeflow slack has been archived.
- no more active commits since Mar 2021.
shall we go to https://github.com/kubeflow/manifests to install kubeflow instead? is there any official announcement from the Kubeflow community? Does anyone have thoughts?
@speaknowpotato thanks for your question. As far as I know, no one in the Community is developing or supporting kfctl. Some systems and users still use it but there isn't any support.
The manifest docs do say...."Starting from Kubeflow 1.3, all components should be deployable using kustomize only." but maybe we need to be more explicit about kfctl and update the kfctl repo.
We discussed this over several releases 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4. Is your concern that folks will use kfctl because we are not explicit on the kfctl repo ?
@kubeflow/wg-manifests-leads and @shannonbradshaw Do you have any comments or proposed fixes here?

@jbottum thanks for your quick response. yeah, that's my concern, it's a little bit confusing for me at first, maybe other people who are new to Kubeflow as well, cause there isn't any update on this repo talking about that kfctl is dead.
Hello people, so, what I understood is that this project should not be used anymore, right?
The instructions for installation in Azure are not updated then, since it points to this tool.

@64J0 @speaknowpotato you are correct that kfctl is no longer a supported method of installing Kubeflow.
However, I imagine that deployKF will meet your needs, and is significantly more powerful than kfctl!

Alternatively, @james-jwu and @chensun should have permission to archive this repo.
Great, thanks for sharing @thesuperzapper.
I agree that this repository must be archived to avoid mistakes in the future.
