Ansible Roadmap
===============

The Ansible team develops a roadmap for each major and minor Ansible release. The latest roadmap shows current work; older roadmaps provide a history of the project. We don't publish roadmaps for subminor versions. So 2.10 and 2.11 have roadmaps, but 2.10.1 does not.

We incorporate team and community feedback in each roadmap, and aim for further transparency and better inclusion of both community desires and submissions.

Each roadmap offers a *best guess*, based on the Ansible team's experience and on requests and feedback from the community, of what will be included in a given release. However, some items on the roadmap may be dropped due to time constraints, lack of community maintainers, and so on.

Each roadmap is published both as an idea of what is upcoming in Ansible, and as a medium for seeking further feedback from the community.

You can submit feedback on the current roadmap in multiple ways:

- Edit the agenda of an `Ansible Community Meeting <https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/539>`_ (preferred)
- Post on the ``#ansible-community`` chat channel (using Matrix at ansible.im or using IRC at `irc.libera.chat <https://libera.chat/>`_)

See :ref:`Ansible communication channels <communication>` for details on how to join and use our chat channels.

Split Ansible docs from core docs (#73616) * excludes scenario guides from core docs, splits porting guides and roadmaps, symlinks indices to create index.html pages, and adds .gitignore entries for conf.py and the toplevel index.rst files generated by the docs build This solution builds three types of docs: * ansible-2.10 and earlier: all the docs. Handle this via `make webdocs ANSIBLE_VERSION=2.10` * ansible-3 and later: a subset of the docs for the ansible package. Handle this via `make webdocs ANSIBLE_VERSION=3` (change the ANSIBLE_VERSION to match the version being built for. * ansible-core: a subset of the docs for the ansible-core package. Handle this via `make coredocs`. * `make webdocs` now always builds all the collection docs * Use `make coredocs` to limit it to core plugins only * The user specifies the desired version. If no ANSIBLE_VERSION is specified, build plugins for the latest release of ansible Co-authored-by: Toshio Kuratomi <a.badger@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Matt Clay <matt@mystile.com> 4 years ago			`COLLECTIONS_3_0`
