-      **Thank you for wanting to suggest a feature for ansible-core!**
-
-
-
-      💡
-      Before you go ahead with your request, please first consider if it
-      would be useful for majority of the ansible-core users. As a
-      general rule of thumb, any feature that is only of interest to a
-      small sub group should be [implemented in a third-party Ansible
-      Collection][contribute to collections] or maybe even just your
-      project alone. Be mindful of the fact that the essential
-      ansible-core features have a broad impact.
-
-      If unsure, consider filing a [new proposal] instead outlining your
-      use-cases, the research and implementation considerations. Then,
-      start a discussion in the [Ansible forum][forum].

+Coding Guidelines
+=================
+
+Hi!  Thanks for your interest in contributing to Ansible.
+
+Here are some guidelines for contributing code.  The purpose of this document is to establish what we're looking for in code contributions, and to make sure
+new contributors know some of the conventions that we've been using.
+
+We don't think much of this should be too strange to readers familiar with contributing to Python projects, though it helps if we all get on the same page.
+
+Language
+========
+
+  * While not all components of Ansible must be in Python, core contributions to the Ansible repo must be written in Python.  This is to maximize the ability of everyone to contribute.
+  * If you want to write non-Python ansible modules or inventory scripts, that's fine, but they are not going to get merged in most likely.  Sorry!!  
+
+PEP 8 and basic style checks
+============================
+
+  * [PEP 8](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/) is a great Python style guide, which you should read.
+  * PEP 8 must not be strictly followed in all aspects, but most of it is good advice.
+  * The line is limited to 160 characters.
+  * To run checks for things we care about, use [ansible-test](http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/dev_guide/testing_pep8.html#running-locally).
+  * Similarly, additional checks can be made with "make pyflakes".
+  * There is no need to submit code changes for PEP 8 and pyflakes fixes, as these break attribution history.  Project leadership will make these periodically.
+  * Do not submit pull requests that simply adjust whitespace in the code.
+
+Testing
+=======
+
+  * Much of ansible's testing needs are in integration, not unit tests.  Add module tests there.
+  * That being said, there are unit tests too!
+  * Code written must absolutely pass tests (i.e. "make tests")
+  * You should anticipate any error paths in your code and test down those error paths.
+  * Additions to tests for core code are welcome, but not always possible.  Be sure things are at least well tested manually in that case.
+
+Whitespace
+==========
+
+  * Four space indent is strictly required
+  * Include meaningful whitespace between lines of code
+
+Shebang Lines
+=============
+ 
+  * /usr/bin/scripts should start with '/usr/bin/env python'
+  * module code should still use '/usr/bin/python' as this is replaced automatically by 'ansible_python_interpreter', see the FAQ in the docs for more info.
+
+Comments
+========
+
+  * Readability is one of the most important goals for this project
+  * Comment any non-trivial code where someone might not know why you are doing something in a particular way
+  * Though if something should be commented, that's often a sign someone should write a function
+  * All new functions must have a basic docstring comment
+  * Commenting above a line is preferable to commenting at the end of a line
+
+Classes
+=======
+
+  * With the exception of module code (where inline is better), it is desirable to see classes in their own files.
+  * Classes should generally not cause side effects as soon as they are instantiated, move meaningful behavior to methods rather than constructors.
+ 
+Functions and Methods
+=====================
+
+  * In general, functions should not be 'too long' and should describe a meaningful amount of work
+  * When code gets too nested, that's usually the sign the loop body could benefit from being a function
+  * Parts of our existing code are not the best examples of this at times. 
+  * Functions should have names that describe what they do, along with docstrings
+  * Functions should be named with_underscores
+  * "Don't repeat yourself" is generally a good philosophy
+
+Variables
+=========
+
+  * Use descriptive variable names instead of variables like 'x', unless x is an obvious loop index
+  * Ansible python code uses identifiers like 'ClassesLikeThis and variables_like_this
+  * Module parameters should also use_underscores and not runtogether
+
+Module Security
+===============
+
+  * Modules must take steps to avoid passing user input from the shell and always check return codes
+  * always use module.run_command instead of subprocess or Popen or os.system -- this is mandatory
+  * if you need to use the shell you must pass use_unsafe_shell=True to module.run_command
+  * if you do not need the shell, avoid using the shell
+  * any variables that can come from the user input with use_unsafe_shell=True must be wrapped by pipes.quote(x)
+  * downloads of https:// resource urls must import module_utils.urls and use the fetch_url method
+
+Misc Preferences
+================
+
+Use the dict constructor where possible when allocating dictionaries:
+
+    # not this:
+    foo = {
+       'a' : 12,
+       'b' : 34
+    }
+
+    # this:
+    foo = dict(
+       a=12,
+       b=34,
+    )
+
+Do not line up variables
+
+    # not this
+    a        = 12
+    foosball = 34
+    xyz      = 'dog'
+
+    # this
+    a = 12
+    foosball = 34
+    xyz = 'dog'
+
+Don't use line continuations:
+
+    # no
+    if (this_is_a_very_long_line and foo and \
+       i_am_going_to_continue_it):
+          bar()
+
+    # better:
+    if (this_is_a_very_long_line and foo and i_am_going_to_continue_it):
+       bar()
+
+Spacing:
+
+    # no
+    x = [1,2,3]
+
+    # no
+    x = [ 1, 2, 3 ]
+
+    # yes
+    x = [1, 2, 3]
+
+Spacing continued:
+
+    # no
+    x=foo(12)
+
+    # no
+    x = foo( 12 )
+
+    # yes
+    x = foo(12)
+
+Licenses
+========
+
+Every file should have a license header, including the copyright of the original author.  Major additions to the module are allowed
+to add an additional copyright line, and this is especially true of rewrites, but original authorship copyright messages should be preserved.
+
+All contributions to the core repo should preserve original licenses and new contributions must include the GPLv3 header.
+
+Module Documentation
+====================
+
+All module pull requests must include a DOCUMENTATION docstring (YAML format, 
+see other modules for examples) as well as an EXAMPLES docstring, which is free form.  
+
+When adding new modules, any new parameter must have a "version_added" attribute.  
+When submitting a new module, the module should have a "version_added" attribute in the 
+pull request as well, set to the current development version.
+
+Be sure to check grammar and spelling.
+
+It's frequently the case that modules get submitted with YAML that isn't valid, 
+so you can run "make webdocs" from the checkout to preview your module's documentation. 
+If it fails to build, take a look at your DOCUMENTATION string 
+or you might have a Python syntax error in there too.
+
+Python Imports
+==============
+
+To make it clear what a module is importing, imports should not be sprinkled throughout the code. 
+
+Python Imports should happen at the top of the file, exempting code from module_utils.
+
+When a conditional runtime import is required, do so something like this instead:
+
+    HAS_FOO = False
+    try:
+       import foo
+       HAS_FOO = True
+    except ImportError:
+       pass
+
+    ...
+
+    if not HAS_FOO:
+       raise Exception("the foo library is required")
+
+This makes it clear what optional dependencies are but allows this to be deferred until runtime.   In the case of module code, the raising of the Exception will be replaced
+with a "module.exit_json" call.
+
+Exceptions
+==========
+
+In the main body of the code, use typed exceptions where possible:
+    
+    # not this
+    raise Exception("panic!")
+
+    # this
+    from ansible import errors
+    ...
+    raise errors.AnsibleError("panic!")
+
+Similarly, exception checking should be fine grained:
+
+    # not this
+    try:
+       foo()
+    except:
+       bar()
+
+    # but this
+    try:
+       foo()
+    except SomeTypedException:
+       bar()
+
+List Comprehensions
+===================
+
+In general list comprehensions are always preferred to map() and filter() calls.
+
+However, they can be abused.  Optimize for readability, and avoid nesting them too deeply.
+
+Regexes
+=======
+
+There is a time and place for them, but here's an illustrative joke.
+
+"A developer had a problem, and used a regular expression to solve it.  Now the developer had two problems".
+
+Often regexes are difficult to maintain, and a trusty call to other string operations can be a great solution, faster,
+and more readable.
+
+File Conventions
+================
+
+If a piece of code looks for a named YAML file in a directory, it should assume it can take no extension, or an extension of '.yml' or '.yaml'.
+This should be true against all code that loads files.
+
+Any code that uses directories should consider the possibility that the directory may be symlink.
+
+New Ansible language parameters
+===============================
+
+If adding a new parameter, like 'can_fizzbuzz: True/False' be sure the value of the parameter is templated somewhere in the Runner code, as if anything can be parameterized in Ansible,
+there is a user that will try to parameterize it.
+
+String Find
+===========
+
+Use 'in':
+
+    # not this:
+    if x.find('foo') != -1:
+
+    # this: 
+    if 'foo' in x:
+
+String checks
+=============
+
+To test if something is a string, consider that it may be unicode.
+
+    # no
+    if type(x) == str:
+
+    # yes
+    from ansible.module_utils.six import string_types
+    if isinstance(x, string_types):
+
+Cleverness
+==========
+
+Ansible's code is intended to be read by as many people as possible, so we don't particularly encourage clever or heavily idiomatic code.
+
+In particular, metaclasses are probably not appropriate, however entertaining they may be to add.
+
+Git Practices
+=============
+
+Pull requests cannot be accepted that contain merge commits.
+
+Always do "git pull --rebase" and "git rebase" vs "git pull" or "git merge".
+
+Always create a new branch for each pull request to avoid intermingling different features or fixes on the same branch.
+
+   
+Python Version Compliance
+=========================
+
+All code in Ansible core must support a minimum version of Python 2.6.
+
+Module code must support a minimum of Python 2.4, with occasional exceptions for modules that require code that themselves require 2.6 and later.
+
+A quick reminder is that list comprehensions in Python 2.4 are not as fully fleshed out, there are no 'dict' comprehensions, and there is no 'with' statement.
+But otherwise it's pretty much all the same.
+
+The End
+=======
+
+This was not meant to be a scary document, so we hope it wasn't, but we also hope this helps you write code that is easier to maintain by others in the future.
+If you have questions about this document, please ask on the ansible-devel mailing list.
+
+Thank you!

-# Ansible
-
-Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles
-configuration management, application deployment, cloud provisioning,
-ad-hoc task execution, network automation, and multi-node orchestration. Ansible makes complex
-changes like zero-downtime rolling updates with load balancers easy. More information on the Ansible [website](https://ansible.com/).
-
-## Design Principles
-
-* Have an extremely simple setup process with a minimal learning curve.
-* Manage machines quickly and in parallel.
-* Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by
-  leveraging the existing SSH daemon.
-* Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human
-  friendly.
-* Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content.
-* Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any
-  software.
-* Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python.
-* Be usable as non-root.
-* Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
-
-## Use Ansible
-
-You can install a released version of Ansible with `pip` or a package manager. See our
-[installation guide](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html) for details on installing Ansible
-on a variety of platforms.
-
-Power users and developers can run the `devel` branch, which has the latest
-features and fixes, directly. Although it is reasonably stable, you are more likely to encounter
-breaking changes when running the `devel` branch. We recommend getting involved
-in the Ansible community if you want to run the `devel` branch.
-
-## Communication
-
-Join the Ansible forum to ask questions, get help, and interact with the
-community.
-
-* [Get Help](https://forum.ansible.com/c/help/6): Find help or share your Ansible knowledge to help others.
-  Use tags to filter and subscribe to posts, such as the following:
-  * Posts tagged with [ansible](https://forum.ansible.com/tag/ansible)
-  * Posts tagged with [ansible-core](https://forum.ansible.com/tag/ansible-core)
-  * Posts tagged with [playbook](https://forum.ansible.com/tag/playbook)
-* [Social Spaces](https://forum.ansible.com/c/chat/4): Meet and interact with fellow enthusiasts.
-* [News & Announcements](https://forum.ansible.com/c/news/5): Track project-wide announcements including social events.
-* [Bullhorn newsletter](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/communication.html#the-bullhorn): Get release announcements and important changes.
-
-For more ways to get in touch, see [Communicating with the Ansible community](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/communication.html).
-
-## Contribute to Ansible
-
-* Check out the [Contributor's Guide](./.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).
-* Read [Community Information](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community) for all
-  kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project,
-  including how to submit bug reports and code to Ansible.
-* Submit a proposed code update through a pull request to the `devel` branch.
-* Talk to us before making larger changes
-  to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone
-  know what is going on, but it also helps save time and effort if we decide
-  some changes are needed.
-
-## Coding Guidelines
-
-We document our Coding Guidelines in the [Developer Guide](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/). We particularly suggest you review:
-
-* [Contributing your module to Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_checklist.html)
-* [Conventions, tips, and pitfalls](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_best_practices.html)
-
-## Branch Info
-
-* The `devel` branch corresponds to the release actively under development.
-* The `stable-2.X` branches correspond to stable releases.
-* Create a branch based on `devel` and set up a [dev environment](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html#common-environment-setup) if you want to open a PR.
-* See the [Ansible release and maintenance](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/release_and_maintenance.html) page for information about active branches.
-
-## Roadmap
-
-Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor version (ex: 2.7, 2.8).
-The [Ansible Roadmap page](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/) details what is planned and how to influence the roadmap.

+*******
+Ansible
+*******
+
+Ansible is a radically simple IT automation system. It handles
+configuration-management, application deployment, cloud provisioning,
+ad-hoc task-execution, and multinode orchestration -- including
+trivializing things like zero-downtime rolling updates with load
+balancers.
+
+Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/
+
+You can find installation instructions
+`here <https://docs.ansible.com/intro_getting_started.html>`_ for a
+variety of platforms.
+
+Most users should probably install a released version of Ansible from ``pip``, a package manager or
+our `release repository <https://releases.ansible.com/ansible/>`_. `Officially supported
+<https://www.ansible.com/ansible-engine>`_ builds of Ansible are also available. Some power users
+run directly from the development branch - while significant efforts are made to ensure that
+``devel`` is reasonably stable, you're more likely to encounter breaking changes when running
+Ansible this way.
+
+Design Principles
+=================
+
+*  Have a dead simple setup process and a minimal learning curve
+*  Manage machines very quickly and in parallel
+*  Avoid custom-agents and additional open ports, be agentless by
+   leveraging the existing SSH daemon
+*  Describe infrastructure in a language that is both machine and human
+   friendly
+*  Focus on security and easy auditability/review/rewriting of content
+*  Manage new remote machines instantly, without bootstrapping any
+   software
+*  Allow module development in any dynamic language, not just Python
+*  Be usable as non-root
+*  Be the easiest IT automation system to use, ever.
+
+Get Involved
+============
+
+*  Read `Community
+   Information <https://docs.ansible.com/community.html>`_ for all
+   kinds of ways to contribute to and interact with the project,
+   including mailing list information and how to submit bug reports and
+   code to Ansible.
+*  All code submissions are done through pull requests. Take care to
+   make sure no merge commits are in the submission, and use
+   ``git rebase`` vs ``git merge`` for this reason. If submitting a
+   large code change (other than modules), it's probably a good idea to
+   join ansible-devel and talk about what you would like to do or add
+   first to avoid duplicate efforts. This not only helps everyone
+   know what's going on, it also helps save time and effort if we decide
+   some changes are needed.
+*  Users list:
+   `ansible-project <https://groups.google.com/group/ansible-project>`_
+*  Development list:
+   `ansible-devel <https://groups.google.com/group/ansible-devel>`_
+*  Announcement list:
+   `ansible-announce <https://groups.google.com/group/ansible-announce>`_
+   -- read only
+*  irc.freenode.net: #ansible
+
+Branch Info
+===========
+
+*  Releases are named after Led Zeppelin songs. (Releases prior to 2.0
+   were named after Van Halen songs.)
+*  The devel branch corresponds to the release actively under
+   development.
+*  Various release-X.Y branches exist for previous releases.
+*  We'd love to have your contributions, read `Community
+   Information <https://docs.ansible.com/community.html>`_ for notes on
+   how to get started.
+
+Authors

+*******************************
+Roadmap For Ansible by Red Hat
+*******************************
+This document is now the location for published Ansible Core roadmaps.
+
+The roadmap will be updated by version. Based on team and community feedback, an initial roadmap will be published for a major or minor version (2.0, 2.1).  Subminor versions will generally not have roadmaps published.
+
+2.1 was the first time Ansible has published this and asked for feedback in this manner.  So feedback on the roadmap and the new process is quite welcome.  The team is aiming for further transparency and better inclusion of both community desires and submissions.
+
+These roadmaps are the team's *best guess* roadmaps based on the Ansible team's experience and are also based on requests and feedback from the community.  There are things that may not make it on due to time constraints, lack of community maintainers, etc.  And there may be things that got missed, so 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. Here are the good places for you to submit feedback:
+
+- Add to the agenda of a `Core IRC Meetings <https://github.com/ansible/community/blob/master/meetings/README.md>`_ (preferred)
+- Ansible's google-group: ansible-devel
+- AnsibleFest conferences.
+- IRC Freenode channel: #ansible-devel (this one may have things lost in lots of conversation, so a caution).
+
+Ansible Roadmaps can be found `here <http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/>`_.

+=======================================================
+Ansible 2.0 "Over the Hills and Far Away" Release Notes
+=======================================================
+2.0.3 "Over the Hills and Far Away"
+-----------------------------------
+
+-  Backport fix to uri module to return the body of an error response
+-  Backport fix to uri module to handle file:/// uris.
+-  Backport fix to uri module to fix traceback when handling certain
+   server error types.
+
+2.0.2 "Over the Hills and Far Away"
+-----------------------------------
+
+-  Backport of the 2.1 feature to ensure per-item callbacks are sent as
+   they occur, rather than all at once at the end of the task.
+-  Fixed bugs related to the iteration of tasks when certain
+   combinations of roles, blocks, and includes were used, especially
+   when handling errors in rescue/always portions of blocks.
+-  Fixed handling of redirects in our helper code, and ported the uri
+   module to use this helper code. This removes the httplib dependency
+   for this module while fixing some bugs related to redirects and SSL
+   certs.
+-  Fixed some bugs related to the incorrect creation of extra temp
+   directories for uploading files, which were not cleaned up properly.
+-  Improved error reporting in certain situations, to provide more
+   information such as the playbook file/line.
+-  Fixed a bug related to the variable precedence of role parameters,
+   especially when a role may be used both as a dependency of a role and
+   directly by itself within the same play.
+-  Fixed some bugs in the 2.0 implementation of do/until.
+-  Fixed some bugs related to run\_once:
+-  Ensure that all hosts are marked as failed if a task marked as
+   run\_once fails.
+-  Show a warning when using the free strategy when a run\_once task is
+   encountered, as there is no way for the free strategy to guarantee
+   the task is not run more than once.
+-  Fixed a bug where the assemble module was not honoring check mode in
+   some situations.
+-  Fixed a bug related to delegate\_to, where we were incorrectly using
+   variables from the inventory host rather than the delegated-to host.
+-  The 'package' meta-module now properly squashes items down to a
+   single execution (as the apt/yum/other package modules do).
+-  Fixed a bug related to the ansible-galaxy CLI command dealing with
+   paged results from the Galaxy server.
+-  Pipelining support is now available for the local and jail connection
+   plugins, which is useful for users who do not wish to have temp
+   files/directories created when running tasks with these connection
+   types.
+-  Improvements in support for additional shell types.
+-  Improvements in the code which is used to calculate checksums for
+   remote files.
+-  Some speed ups and bug fixes related to the variable merging code.
+-  Workaround bug in python subprocess on El Capitan that was making
+   vault fail when attempting to encrypt a file
+-  Fix lxc\_container module having predictable temp file names and
+   setting file permissions on the temporary file too leniently on a
+   temporary file that was executed as a script. Addresses CVE-2016-3096
+-  Fix a bug in the uri module where setting headers via module params
+   that start with ``HEADER_`` were causing a traceback.
+-  Fix bug in the free strategy that was causing it to synchronize its
+   workers after every task (making it a lot more like linear than it
+   should have been).
+
+2.0.1 "Over the Hills and Far Away"
+-----------------------------------

+-  Fixes a major compatibility break in the synchronize module shipped
+   with 2.0.0.x. That version of synchronize ran sudo on the controller
+   prior to running rsync. In 1.9.x and previous, sudo was run on the
+   host that rsync connected to. 2.0.1 restores the 1.9.x behaviour.
+-  Additionally, several other problems with where synchronize chose to
+   run when combined with delegate\_to were fixed. In particular, if a
+   playbook targetted localhost and then delegated\_to a remote host the
+   prior behavior (in 1.9.x and 2.0.0.x) was to copy files between the
+   src and destination directories on the delegated host. This has now
+   been fixed to copy between localhost and the delegated host.
+-  Fix a regression where synchronize was unable to deal with unicode
+   paths.
+-  Fix a regression where synchronize deals with inventory hosts that
+   use localhost but with an alternate port.
+-  Fixes a regression where the retry files feature was not implemented.
+-  Fixes a regression where the any\_errors\_fatal option was
+   implemented in 2.0 incorrectly, and also adds a feature where
+   any\_errors\_fatal can be set at the block level.
+-  Fix tracebacks when playbooks or ansible itself were located in
+   directories with unicode characters.
+-  Fix bug when sending unicode characters to an external pager for
+   display.
+-  Fix a bug with squashing loops for special modules (mostly package
+   managers). The optimization was squashing when the loop did not apply
+   to the selection of packages. This has now been fixed.
+-  Temp files created when using vault are now "shredded" using the unix
+   shred program which overwrites the file with random data.
+-  Some fixes to cloudstack modules for case sensitivity
+-  Fix non-newstyle modules (non-python modules and old-style modules)
+   to disabled pipelining.
+-  Fix fetch module failing even if fail\_on\_missing is set to False
+-  Fix for cornercase when local connections, sudo, and raw were used
+   together.
+-  Fix dnf module to remove dependent packages when state=absent is
+   specified. This was a feature of the 1.9.x version that was left out
+   by mistake when the module was rewritten for 2.0.
+-  Fix bugs with non-english locales in yum, git, and apt modules
+-  Fix a bug with the dnf module where state=latest could only upgrade,
+   not install.
+-  Fix to make implicit fact gathering task correctly inherit settings
+   from play, this might cause an error if settings environment on play
+   depending on 'ansible\_env' which was previously ignored
+
+2.0 "Over the Hills and Far Away" - Jan 12, 2016
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Releases are now named after Led Zeppelin songs, 1.9 will be the last
+   Van Halen named release.
+-  The new block/rescue/always directives allow for making task blocks
+   and exception-like semantics
+-  New strategy plugins (e.g. ``free``) allow control over the flow of
+   task execution per play. The default (``linear``) will be the same as
+   before.
+-  Improved error handling, with more detailed parser messages. General
+   exception handling and display has been revamped.
+-  Task includes are now evaluated during execution, allowing more
+   dynamic includes and options. Play includes are unchanged both still
+   use the ``include`` directive.
+-  "with\_" loops can now be used with task includes since they are
+   dynamic.
+-  Callback, connection, cache and lookup plugin APIs have changed.
+   Existing plugins might require modification to work with the new
+   versions.
+-  Callbacks are now shipped in the active directory and don't need to
+   be copied, just whitelisted in ansible.cfg.
+-  Many API changes. Those integrating directly with Ansible's API will
+   encounter breaking changes, but the new API is much easier to use and
+   test.
+-  Settings are now more inheritable; what you set at play, block or
+   role will be automatically inherited by the contained tasks. This
+   allows for new features to automatically be settable at all levels,
+   previously we had to manually code this.
+-  Vars are now settable at play, block, role and task level with the
+   ``vars`` directive and scoped to the tasks contained.
+-  Template code now retains types for bools and numbers instead of
+   turning them into strings. If you need the old behaviour, quote the
+   value and it will get passed around as a string
+-  Empty variables and variables set to null in yaml will no longer be
+   converted to empty strings. They will retain the value of ``None``.
+   To go back to the old behaviour, you can override the
+   ``null_representation`` setting to an empty string in your config
+   file or by setting the ``ANSIBLE_NULL_REPRESENTATION`` environment
+   variable.
+-  Added ``meta: refresh_inventory`` to force rereading the inventory in
+   a play. This re-executes inventory scripts, but does not force them
+   to ignore any cache they might use.
+-  New delegate\_facts directive, a boolean that allows you to apply
+   facts to the delegated host (true/yes) instead of the
+   inventory\_hostname (no/false) which is the default and previous
+   behaviour.
+-  local connections now work with 'su' as a privilege escalation method
+-  Ansible 2.0 has deprecated the "ssh" from ansible\_ssh\_user,
+   ansible\_ssh\_host, and ansible\_ssh\_port to become ansible\_user,
+   ansible\_host, and ansible\_port.
+-  New ssh configuration variables (``ansible_ssh_common_args``,
+   ``ansible_ssh_extra_args``) can be used to configure a per-group or
+   per-host ssh ProxyCommand or set any other ssh options.
+   ``ansible_ssh_extra_args`` is used to set options that are accepted
+   only by ssh (not sftp or scp, which have their own analogous
+   settings).
+-  ansible-pull can now verify the code it runs when using git as a
+   source repository, using git's code signing and verification
+   features.
+-  Backslashes used when specifying parameters in jinja2 expressions in
+   YAML dicts sometimes needed to be escaped twice. This has been fixed
+   so that escaping once works. Here's an example of how playbooks need
+   to be modified:
+
+   .. code:: yaml
+
+       # Syntax in 1.9.x
+       - debug:
+           msg: "{{ 'test1_junk 1\\\\3' | regex_replace('(.*)_junk (.*)', '\\\\1 \\\\2') }}"
+       # Syntax in 2.0.x
+       - debug:
+           msg: "{{ 'test1_junk 1\\3' | regex_replace('(.*)_junk (.*)', '\\1 \\2') }}"
+
+       # Output:
+       "msg": "test1 1\\3"
+
+-  When a string with a trailing newline was specified in the playbook
+   via yaml dict format, the trailing newline was stripped. When
+   specified in key=value format the trailing newlines were kept. In v2,
+   both methods of specifying the string will keep the trailing
+   newlines. If you relied on the trailing newline being stripped you
+   can change your playbook like this:
+
+   .. code:: yaml
+
+       # Syntax in 1.9.2
+       vars:
+         message: >
+           Testing
+           some things
+       tasks:
+       - debug:
+           msg: "{{ message }}"
+
+       # Syntax in 2.0.x
+       vars:
+         old_message: >
+           Testing
+           some things
+         message: "{{ old_messsage[:-1] }}"
+       - debug:
+           msg: "{{ message }}"
+       # Output
+       "msg": "Testing some things"
+
+-  In 1.9.x, newlines in templates were converted to Unix EOL
+   conventions. If someone wanted a templated file to end up with
+   Windows or Mac EOL conventions, this could cause problems for them.
+   In 2.x newlines now remain as specified in the template file.
+
+-  When specifying complex args as a variable, the variable must use the
+   full jinja2 variable syntax ('{{var\_name}}') - bare variable names
+   there are no longer accepted. In fact, even specifying args with
+   variables has been deprecated, and will not be allowed in future
+   versions:
+
+   .. code:: yaml
+
+       ---
+       - hosts: localhost
+         connection: local
+         gather_facts: false
+         vars:
+           my_dirs:
+             - { path: /tmp/3a, state: directory, mode: 0755 }
+             - { path: /tmp/3b, state: directory, mode: 0700 }
+         tasks:
+           - file:
+             args: "{{item}}"
+             with_items: my_dirs
+
+-  The bigip\* networking modules have a new parameter, validate\_certs.
+   When True (the default) the module will validate any hosts it
+   connects to against the TLS certificates it presents when run on new
+   enough python versions. If the python version is too old to validate
+   certificates or you used certificates that cannot be validated
+   against available CAs you will need to add validate\_certs=no to your
+   playbook for those tasks.
+
+Plugins
+~~~~~~~
+
+-  Rewritten dnf module that should be faster and less prone to
+   encountering bugs in cornercases
+-  WinRM connection plugin passes all vars named ``ansible_winrm_*`` to
+   the underlying pywinrm client. This allows, for instance,
+   ``ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation=ignore`` to be used with newer
+   versions of pywinrm to disable certificate validation on Python
+   2.7.9+.
+-  WinRM connection plugin put\_file is significantly faster and no
+   longer has file size limitations.

+
+Minor changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Many more tests. The new API makes things more testable and we took
+   advantage of it.
+-  big\_ip modules now support turning off ssl certificate validation
+   (use only for self-signed certificates).
+-  Consolidated code from modules using urllib2 to normalize features,
+   TLS and SNI support.
+-  synchronize module's dest\_port parameter now takes precedence over
+   the ansible\_ssh\_port inventory setting.
+-  Play output is now dynamically sized to terminal with a minimum of 80
+   coluumns (old default).
+-  vars\_prompt and pause are now skipped with a warning if the play is
+   called noninteractively (i.e. pull from cron).
+-  Support for OpenBSD's 'doas' privilege escalation method.
+-  Most vault operations can now be done over multilple files.
+-  ansible-vault encrypt/decrypt read from stdin if no other input file
+   is given, and can write to a given ``--output file`` (including
+   stdout, '-'). This lets you avoid ever writing sensitive plaintext to
+   disk.
+-  ansible-vault rekey accepts the --new-vault-password-file option.
+-  ansible-vault now preserves file permissions on edit and rekey and
+   defaults to restrictive permissions for other options.
+-  Configuration items defined as paths (local only) now all support
+   shell style interpolations.
+-  Many fixes and new options added to modules, too many to list here.
+-  Now you can see task file and line number when using verbosity of 3
+   or above.
+-  The ``[x-y]`` host range syntax is no longer supported. Note that
+   ``[0:1]`` matches two hosts, i.e. the range is inclusive of its
+   endpoints.
+-  We now recommend the use of ``pattern1,pattern2`` to combine host
+   matching patterns.
+-  The use of ':' as a separator conflicts with IPv6 addresses and host
+   ranges. It will be deprecated in the future.
+-  The undocumented use of ';' as a separator is now deprecated.
+-  modules and callbacks have been extended to support no\_log to avoid
+   data disclosure.
+-  new managed\_syslog option has been added to control output to syslog
+   on managed machines, no\_log supersedes this settings.
+-  Lookup, vars and action plugin pathing has been normalized, all now
+   follow the same sequence to find relative files.
+-  We do not ignore the explicitly set login user for ssh when it
+   matches the 'current user' anymore, this allows overriding
+   .ssh/config when it is set explicitly. Leaving it unset will still
+   use the same user and respect .ssh/config. This also means
+   ansible\_ssh\_user can now return a None value.
+-  environment variables passed to remote shells now default to
+   'controller' settings, with fallback to en\_US.UTF8 which was the
+   previous default.
+-  add\_hosts is much stricter about host name and will prevent invalid
+   names from being added.
+-  ansible-pull now defaults to doing shallow checkouts with git, use
+   ``--full`` to return to previous behaviour.
+-  random cows are more random
+-  when: now gets the registered var after the first iteration, making
+   it possible to break out of item loops
+-  Handling of undefined variables has changed. In most places they will
+   now raise an error instead of silently injecting an empty string. Use
+   the default filter if you want to approximate the old behaviour:
+
+   ::
+
+       - debug: msg="The error message was: {{error_code |default('') }}"
+
+-  The yum module's detection of installed packages has been made more
+   robust by using /usr/bin/rpm in cases where it woud have used
+   repoquery before.
+-  The pip module now properly reports changes when packages are coming
+   from a VCS.
+-  Fixes for retrieving files over https when a CONNECT-only proxy is in
+   the middle.

+=====================================================
+Ansible 2.1 "The Song Remains the Same" Release Notes
+=====================================================
+2.1.6 "The Song Remains the Same" - 06-01-2017
+----------------------------------------------
+
+-  Security fix for CVE-2017-7481 - data for lookup plugins used as
+   variables was not being correctly marked as "unsafe".
+
+2.1.5 "The Song Remains the Same" - 03-27-2017
+----------------------------------------------
+
+-  Security continued fix for CVE-2016-9587 - Handle some additional
+   corner cases in the way conditionals are parsed and evaluated.
+
+2.1.4 "The Song Remains the Same" - 2017-01-16
+----------------------------------------------
+
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-9587 - An attacker with control over a
+   client system being managed by Ansible and the ability to send facts
+   back to the Ansible server could use this flaw to execute arbitrary
+   code on the Ansible server as the user and group Ansible is running
+   as.
+-  Fixed a bug with conditionals in loops, where undefined variables and
+   other errors will defer raising the error until the conditional has
+   been evaluated.
+-  Added a version check for jinja2-2.9, which does not fully work with
+   Ansible currently.
+
+2.1.3 "The Song Remains the Same" - 2016-11-04
+----------------------------------------------
+
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-8628 - Command injection by compromised
+   server via fact variables. In some situations, facts returned by
+   modules could overwrite connection-based facts or some other special
+   variables, leading to injected commands running on the Ansible
+   controller as the user running Ansible (or via escalated
+   permissions).
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-8614 - apt\_key module not properly
+   validating keys in some situations.
+
+Minor Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  The subversion module from core now marks its password parameter as
+   no\_log so the password is obscured when logging.
+-  The postgresql\_lang and postgresql\_ext modules from extras now mark
+   login\_password as no\_log so the password is obscured when logging.
+-  Fixed several bugs related to locating files relative to
+   role/playbook directories.
+-  Fixed a bug in the way hosts were tested for failed states, resulting
+   in incorrectly skipped block sessions.
+-  Fixed a bug in the way our custom JSON encoder is used for the
+   ``to_json*`` filters.
+-  Fixed some bugs related to the use of non-ascii characters in become
+   passwords.
+-  Fixed a bug with Azure modules which may be using the latest rc6
+   library.
+-  Backported some docker\_common fixes.
+
+2.1.2 "The Song Remains the Same" - 2016-09-29
+----------------------------------------------
+
+Minor Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Fixed a bug related to creation of retry files (#17456)
+-  Fixed a bug in the way include params are used when an include task
+   is dynamic (#17064)
+-  Fixed a bug related to including blocks in an include task (#15963)
+-  Fixed a bug related to the use of hostvars internally when creating
+   the connection plugin. This prevents things like variables using
+   lookups from being evaluated unnecessarily (#17024)
+-  Fixed a bug where using a variable containing a list for the
+   ``hosts`` of a play resulted in an list of lists (#16583)
+-  Fixed a bug where integer values would cause an error if a module
+   param was of type ``float`` (no issue)
+-  Fixed a bug with net\_template failing if src was not specified
+   (#17726)
+-  Fixed a bug in "ansible-galaxy import" (#17417)
+-  Fixed a bug in which INI files incorrectly treated a hosts range as a
+   section header (#15331)
+-  Fixed a bug in which the max\_fail\_percentage calculation
+   erroneously caused a series of plays to stop executing (#15954)
+-  Fixed a bug in which the task names were not properly templated
+   (#16295)
+-  Fixed a bug causing "squashed" loops (ie. yum, apt) to incorrectly
+   report results (ansible-modules-core#4214)
+-  Fixed several bugs related to includes:
+-  when including statically, make sure that all parents were also
+   included statically (issue #16990)
+-  properly resolve nested static include paths
+-  print a message when a file is statically included
+-  Fixed a bug in which module params expected to be float types were
+   not converted from integers (only strings) (#17325)
+-  Fixed a bug introduced by static includes in 2.1, which prevented
+   notifications from going to the "top level" handler name.
+-  Fixed a bug where a group\_vars or host\_vars directory in the
+   current working directory would be used (and would take precedence)
+   over those in the inventory and/or playbook directory.
+-  Fixed a bug which could occur when the result of an async task did
+   not parse as valid JSON.
+-  (re)-allowed the use of ansible\_python\_interpreter lines with more
+   than one argument.
+-  Fixed several bugs related to the creation of the implicit localhost
+   in inventory.
+-  Fixed a bug related to an unspecified number of retries when using
+   until.
+-  Fixed a race-condition bug when creating temp directories before the
+   worker process is forked.
+-  Fix a bug with async's poll keyword not making use of
+   ansible\_python\_interpreter to run (and thus breaking when
+   /usr/bin/python is not present on the remote machine.)
+-  Fix a bug where hosts that started with a range in inventory were
+   being treated as an invalid section header.
+

+
+Deprecations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Deprecated the use of ``_fixup_perms``. Use ``_fixup_perms2``
+   instead. This change only impacts custom action plugins using
+   ``_fixup_perms``.
+
+Incompatible Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Use of ``_fixup_perms`` with ``recursive=True`` (the default) is no
+   longer supported. Custom action plugins using ``_fixup_perms`` will
+   require changes unless they already use ``recursive=False``. Use
+   ``_fixup_perms2`` if support for previous releases is not required.
+   Otherwise use ``_fixup_perms`` with ``recursive=False``.
+
+2.1 "The Song Remains the Same"
+-------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Official support for the networking modules, originally available in
+   2.0 as a tech preview.
+-  Refactored and expanded support for Docker with new modules and many
+   improvements to existing modules, as well as a new Kubernetes module.
+-  Added new modules for Azure (see below for the full list)
+-  Added the ability to specify includes as "static" (either through a
+   configuration option or on a per-include basis). When includes are
+   static, they are loaded at compile time and cannot contain dynamic
+   features like loops.
+-  Added a new strategy ``debug``, which allows per-task debugging of
+   playbooks, for more details see
+   https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks\_debugger.html
+-  Added a new option for tasks: ``loop_control``. This currently only
+   supports one option - ``loop_var``, which allows a different loop
+   variable from ``item`` to be used.
+-  Added the ability to filter facts returned by the fact gathering
+   setup step using the ``gather_subset`` option on the play or in the
+   ansible.cfg configuration file. See
+   http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/intro\_configuration.html#gathering
+   for details on the format of the option.
+-  Added the ability to send per-item callbacks, rather than a batch
+   update (this more closely resembles the behavior of Ansible 1.x).
+-  Added facility for modules to send back 'diff' for display when
+   ansible is called with --diff, updated several modules to return this
+   info
+-  Added ansible-console tool, a REPL shell that allows running adhoc
+   tasks against a chosen inventory (based on
+   https://github.com/dominis/ansible-shell)
+-  Added two new variables, which are set when the ``rescue`` portion of
+   a ``block`` is started:
+-  ``ansible_failed_task``, which contains the serialized version of the
+   failed task.
+-  ``ansible_failed_result``, which contains the result of the failed
+   task.
+-  New meta action, ``meta: clear_host_errors`` which will clear any
+   hosts which were marked as failed (but not unreachable hosts).
+-  New meta action, ``meta: clear_facts`` which will remove existing
+   facts for the current host from current memory and facts cache.
+-  copy module can now transparently use a vaulted file as source, if
+   vault passwords were provided it will decrypt and copy on the fly.
+-  The way new-style python modules (which include all of the
+   non-windows modules shipped with Ansible) are assembled before
+   execution on the remote machine has been changed. The new way stays
+   closer to how python imports modules which will make it easier to
+   write modules which rely heavily on shared code.
+-  Reduce the situations in which a module can end up as world readable.
+   For details, see:
+   https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/become.html#becoming-an-unprivileged-user
+-  Re-implemented the retry file feature, which had been left out of 2.0
+   (fix was backported to 2.0.1 originally).
+-  Improved winrm argument validation and feature sniffing (for upcoming
+   pywinrm NTLM support).
+-  Improved winrm error handling: basic parsing of stderr from CLIXML
+   stream.

+Minor Changes:

+   helps prevent module data from being written to disk.
+-  Added a new '!unsafe' YAML decorator, which can be used in playbooks
+   to ensure a string is not templated. For example:
+   ``foo: !unsafe "Don't template {{me}}"``.
+-  Callbacks now have access to the options with which the CLI was

+   warning will be removed completely in 2.3, after which time it will
+   be an error.
+-  play\_hosts magic variable, use ansible\_play\_batch or
+   ansible\_play\_hosts instead.

+Ansible 2.2 "The Battle of Evermore" Release Notes
+==================================================
+2.2.4 "The Battle of Evermore" - TBD
+------------------------------------
+
+-  avoid vault view writing to logs
+-  moved htpasswd module to use LooseVersion vs StrictVersion to make
+   usable on Debian
+-  fix for adhoc not obeying callback options
+
+2.2.3 "The Battle of Evermore" - 05-09-2017
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  [SECURITY] (HIGH): fix for CVE-2017-7466, which was caused by an
+   incomplete cherry-picking of commits related to CVE-2016-9587. This
+   can lead to some jinja2 syntax not being stripped out of templated
+   results.
+-  [SECURITY] (MODERATE): fix for CVE-2017-7481, in which data for
+   lookup plugins used as variables was not being correctly marked as
+   "unsafe".
+
+Minor Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Fixes a bug when using YAML inventory where hosts were not put in the
+   'all' group, and some other 'ungrouped' issues in inventory.
+-  Fixes a bug when using ansible commands without a tty for stdin.
+-  Split on newlines when searching for become prompt.
+-  Fix crash upon pass prompt in py3 when using the paramiko connection
+   type.
+
+2.2.2 "The Battle of Evermore" - 03-27-2017
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  [SECURITY] (HIGH): (continued fix for CVE-2016-9587) Handle some
+   additional corner cases in the way conditionals are parsed and
+   evaluated.
+-  [SECURITY] (LOW): properly filter passwords out of URLs when
+   displaying output from some modules.
+
+Minor Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Fix azure\_rm version checks (#22270).

+-  Fix for bug related to when statements for older jinja2 versions.
+-  Fix a bug/traceback when using to\_yaml/to\_nice\_yaml.
+-  Properly clean data of jinja2-like syntax, even if that data came
+   from an unsafe source.
+-  Fix bug regarding undefined entries in HostVars.
+-  Skip fact gathering if the entire play was included via conditional
+   which evaluates to False.
+-  Fixed a performance regression when using a large number of items in
+   a with loop.
+-  Fixed a bug in the way the end of role was detected, which in some
+   cases could cause a role to be run more than once.
+-  Add jinja2 groupby filter override to cast namedtuple to tuple to
+   handle a non-compatible change in jinja2 2.9.4-2.9.5.
+-  Fixed several bugs related to temp directory creation on remote
+   systems when using shell expansions and become privilege escalation.
+-  Fixed a bug related to spliting/parsing the output of a become
+   privilege escalation when looking for a password prompt.
+-  Several unicode/bytes fixes.
+
+2.2.1 "The Battle of Evermore" - 01-16-2017
+-------------------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-9587 - An attacker with control over a
+   client system being managed by Ansible and the ability to send facts
+   back to the Ansible server could use this flaw to execute arbitrary
+   code on the Ansible server as the user and group Ansible is running
+   as.
+
+Minor Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Fixes a bug where undefined variables in with\_\* loops would cause a
+   task failure even if the when condition would cause the task to be
+   skipped.
+-  Fixed a bug related to roles where in certain situations a role may
+   be run more than once despite not allowing duplicates.
+-  Fixed some additional bugs related to atomic\_move for modules.
+-  Fixes multiple bugs related to field/attribute inheritance in nested
+   blocks and includes, as well as task iteration logic during failures.
+-  Fixed pip installing packages into virtualenvs using the system pip
+   instead of the virtualenv pip.
+-  Fixed dnf on systems with dnf-2.0.x (some changes in the API).
+-  Fixed traceback with dnf install of groups.
+-  Fixes a bug in which include\_vars was not working with failed\_when.
+-  Fix for include\_vars only loading files with .yml, .yaml, and .json
+   extensions. This was only supposed to apply to loading a directory of
+   vars files.
+-  Fixes several bugs related to properly incrementing the failed count
+   in the host statistics.
+-  Fixes a bug with listening handlers which did not specify a ``name``
+   field.
+-  Fixes a bug with the ``play_hosts`` internal variable, so that it
+   properly reflects the current list of hosts.
+-  Fixes a bug related to the v2\_playbook\_on\_start callback method
+   and legacy (v1) plugins.
+-  Fixes an openssh related process exit race condition, related to the
+   fact that connections using ControlPersist do not close stderr.
+-  Improvements and fixes to OpenBSD fact gathering.
+-  Updated ``make deb`` to use pbuilder. Use ``make local_deb`` for the
+   previous non-pbuilder build.
+-  Fixed Windows async to avoid blocking due to handle inheritance.
+-  Fixed bugs in the mount module on older Linux kernels and \*BSDs
+-  Fix regression in jinja2 include search path.
+-  Various minor fixes for Python 3
+-  Inserted some checks for jinja2-2.9, which can cause some issues with
+   Ansible currently.
+
+2.2 "The Battle of Evermore" - 11-01-2016
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Major Changes:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-8628 - Command injection by compromised
+   server via fact variables. In some situations, facts returned by
+   modules could overwrite connection-based facts or some other special
+   variables, leading to injected commands running on the Ansible
+   controller as the user running Ansible (or via escalated
+   permissions).
+-  Security fix for CVE-2016-8614 - apt\_key module not properly
+   validating keys in some situations.
+-  Added the ``listen`` feature for modules. This feature allows tasks
+   to more easily notify multiple handlers, as well as making it easier
+   for handlers from decoupled roles to be notified.
+-  Major performance improvements.
+-  Added support for binary modules
+-  Added the ability to specify serial batches as a list
+   (``serial: [1, 5, 10]``), which allows for so-called "canary" actions
+   in one play.
+-  Fixed 'local type' plugins and actions to have a more predictable
+   relative path. Fixes a regression of 1.9 (PR #16805). Existing users
+   of 2.x will need to adjust related tasks.
+-  ``meta`` tasks can now use conditionals.
+-  ``raw`` now returns ``changed: true`` to be consistent with
+   shell/command/script modules. Add ``changed_when: false`` to ``raw``
+   tasks to restore the pre-2.2 behavior if necessary.
+-  New privilege escalation become method ``ksu``
+-  Windows ``async:`` support for long-running or background tasks.
+-  Windows ``environment:`` support for setting module environment vars
+   in play/task.
+-  Added a new ``meta`` option: ``end_play``, which can be used to skip
+   to the end of a play.
+-  roles can now be included in the middle of a task list via the new
+   ``include_role`` module, this also allows for making the role import
+   'loopable' and/or conditional.
+-  The service module has been changed to use system specific modules if
+   they exist and fall back to the old service module if they cannot be
+   found or detected.
+-  Add ability to specify what ssh client binary to use on the
+   controller. This can be configured via ssh\_executable in the ansible
+   config file or by setting ansible\_ssh\_executable as an inventory
+   variable if different ones are needed for different hosts.
+-  Windows:
+-  several facts were modified or renamed for consistency with their
+   Unix counterparts, and many new facts were added. If your playbooks
+   rely on any of the following keys, please ensure they are using the
+   correct key names and/or values:
+
+   -  ansible\_date\_time.date (changed to use yyyy-mm-dd format instead
+      of default system-locale format)
+   -  ansible\_date\_time.iso8601 (changed to UTC instead of local time)
+   -  ansible\_distribution (now uses OS caption string, e.g.:
+      "Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard", version is still
+      available on ansible\_distribution\_version)
+   -  ansible\_totalmem (renamed to ansible\_memtotal\_mb, units changed
+      to MB instead of bytes)
+
+-  ``async:`` support for long-running or background tasks.
+-  ``environment:`` support for setting module environment vars in
+   play/task.
+-  Tech Preview: Work has been done to get Ansible running under
+   Python3. This work is not complete enough to depend upon in
+   production environments but it is enough to begin testing it.
+-  Most of the controller side should now work. Users should be able to
+   run python3 /usr/bin/ansible and python3 /usr/bin/ansible-playbook
+   and have core features of ansible work.
+-  A few of the most essential modules have been audited and are known
+   to work. Others work out of the box.
+-  We are using unit and integration tests to help us port code and not
+   regress later. Even if you are not familiar with python you can still
+   help by contributing integration tests (just ansible roles) that
+   exercise more of the code to make sure it continues to run on both
+   Python2 and Python3.
+-  scp\_if\_ssh now supports True, False and "smart". "smart" is the
+   default and will retry failed sftp transfers with scp.
+-  Network:
+-  Refactored all network modules to remove duplicate code and take
+   advantage of Ansiballz implementation
+-  All functionality from \*\_template network modules have been
+   combined into \*\_config module
+-  Network \*\_command modules not longer allow configuration mode
+   statements

+   between loop iterations of a task.
+-  New privilege escalation become method ``ksu``
+-  ``raw`` now returns ``changed: true`` to be consistent with
+   shell/command/script modules. Add ``changed_when: false`` to ``raw``
+   tasks to restore the pre-2.2 behavior if necessary.
+-  removed previously deprecated ';' as host list separator.
+-  Only check if the default ssh client supports ControlPersist once
+   instead of once for each host + task combination.
+-  Fix a problem with the pip module updating the python pip package
+   itself.
+-  ansible\_play\_hosts is a new magic variable to provide a list of
+   hosts in scope for the current play. Unlike play\_hosts it is not
+   subject to the 'serial' keyword.
+-  ansible\_play\_batch is a new magic variable meant to substitute the
+   current play\_hosts.
+-  The subversion module from core now marks its password parameter as
+   no\_log so the password is obscured when logging.
+-  The postgresql\_lang and postgresql\_ext modules from extras now mark
+   login\_password as no\_log so the password is obscured when logging.
+-  Fix for yum module incorrectly thinking it succeeded in installing
+   packages
+-  Make the default ansible\_managed template string into a static
+   string since all of the replacable values lead to non-idempotent
+   behaviour.
+
+For custom front ends using the API:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  ansible.parsing.vault:
+-  VaultLib.is\_encrypted() has been deprecated. It will be removed in
+   2.4. Use ansible.parsing.vault.is\_encrypted() instead
+-  VaultFile has been removed. This unfinished code was never used
+   inside of Ansible. The feature it was intended to support has now
+   been implemented without using this.
+-  VaultAES, the older, insecure encrypted format that debuted in
+   Ansible-1.5 and was replaced by VaultAES256 less than a week later,
+   now has a deprecation warning. **It will be removed in 2.3**. In the
+   unlikely event that you wrote a vault file in that 1 week window and
+   have never modified the file since (ansible-vault automatically
+   re-encrypts the file using VaultAES256 whenever it is written to but
+   not read), run ``ansible-vault rekey [filename]`` to move to
+   VaultAES256.
+
+Removed Deprecated
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  ';' as host list separator.
+-  with\_ 'bare variable' handling, now loop items must always be
+   templated ``{{ }}`` or they will be considered as plain strings.
+-  skipping task on 'missing attribute' in loop variable, now in a loop
+   an undefined attribute will return an error instead of skipping the
+   task.
+-  skipping on undefined variables in loop, now loops will have to
+   define a variable or use ``|default`` to avoid errors.
+
+Deprecations

+Notice given that the following will be removed in Ansible 2.4: \*
+Modules \* eos\_template \* ios\_template \* iosxr\_template \*

+
+2.3 "Ramble On" - 2017-04-12
+----------------------------
+
+Moving to Ansible 2.3 guide
+http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/porting\_guide\_2.3.html
+
+Major Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Documented and renamed the previously released 'single var vaulting'
+   feature, allowing user to use vault encryption for single variables
+   in a normal YAML vars file.
+-  Allow module\_utils for custom modules to be placed in site-specific
+   directories and shipped in roles
+-  On platforms that support it, use more modern system polling API
+   instead of select in the ssh connection plugin. This removes one
+   limitation on how many parallel forks are feasible on these systems.
+-  Windows/WinRM supports (experimental) become method "runas" to run
+   modules and scripts as a different user, and to transparently access
+   network resources.
+-  The WinRM connection plugin now uses pipelining when executing
+   modules, resulting in significantly faster execution for small tasks.
+-  The WinRM connection plugin can now manage Kerberos tickets
+   automatically when ``ansible_winrm_transport=kerberos`` and
+   ``ansible_user``/``ansible_password`` are specified.
+-  Refactored/standardized most Windows modules, adding check-mode and
+   diff support where possible.
+-  Extended Windows module API with parameter-type support, helper
+   functions. (i.e. Expand-Environment, Add-Warning,
+   Add-DeprecatationWarning)
+-  restructured how async works to allow it to apply to action plugins
+   that choose to support it.
+
+Minor Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  The version and release facts for OpenBSD hosts were reversed. This
+   has been changed so that version has the numeric portion and release
+   has the name of the release.
+-  removed 'package' from default squash actions as not all package
+   managers support it and it creates errors when using loops, any user
+   can add back via config options if they don't use those package
+   managers or otherwise avoid the errors.
+-  Blocks can now have a ``name`` field, to aid in playbook readability.
+-  default strategy is now configurable via ansible.cfg or environment
+   variable.
+-  Added 'ansible\_playbook\_python' which contains 'current python
+   executable', it can be blank in some cases in which Ansible is not
+   invoked via the standard CLI (sys.executable limitation).
+-  Added 'metadata' to modules to enable classification
+-  ansible-doc now displays path to module and existing 'metadata'
+-  added optional 'piped' transfer method to ssh plugin for when scp and
+   sftp are missing, ssh plugin is also now 'smarter' when using these
+   options
+-  default controlpersist path is now a custom hash of host-port-user to
+   avoid the socket path length errors for long hostnames
+-  Various fixes for Python3 compatibility
+-  Fixed issues with inventory formats not handling 'all' and
+   'ungrouped' in an uniform way.
+-  'service' tasks can now use async again, we had lost this capability
+   when changed into an action plugin.
+-  made any\_errors\_fatal inheritable from play to task and all other
+   objects in between.
+-  many small performance improvements in inventory and variable
+   handling and in task execution.
+-  Added a retry class to the ec2\_asg module since customers were
+   running into throttling errors (AWSRetry is a solution for modules
+   using boto3 which isn't applicable here).
+
+Deprecations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  Specifying --tags (or --skip-tags) multiple times on the command line
+   currently leads to the last one overriding all the previous ones.
+   This behaviour is deprecated. In the future, if you specify --tags
+   multiple times the tags will be merged together. From now on, using
+   --tags multiple times on one command line will emit a deprecation
+   warning. Setting the merge\_multiple\_cli\_tags option to True in the
+   ansible.cfg file will enable the new behaviour. In 2.4, the default
+   will be to merge and you can enable the old overwriting behaviour via
+   the config option. In 2.5, multiple --tags options will be merged
+   with no way to go back to the old behaviour.
+
+-  Modules (scheduled for removal in 2.5)
+-  ec2\_vpc
+-  cl\_bond
+-  cl\_bridge
+-  cl\_img\_install
+-  cl\_interface
+-  cl\_interface\_policy
+-  cl\_license
+-  cl\_ports

+
+New: Callbacks
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+-  dense: minimal stdout output with fallback to default when verbose
+
+New: lookups
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+-  keyring: allows getting password from the 'controller' system's
+   keyrings
+
+New: cache
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+-  pickle (uses python's own serializer)
+-  yaml
+
+New: inventory scripts

+
+Module Notes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+-  AWS lambda: previously ignored changes that only affected one
+   parameter. Existing deployments may have outstanding changes that
+   this bugfix will apply.
+-  oVirt/RHV: Added support for 4.1 features and the following:
+-  data centers, clusters, hosts, storage domains and networks
+   management.
+-  hosts and virtual machines affinity groups and labels.
+-  users, groups and permissions management.
+-  Improved virtual machines and disks management.
+-  Mount: Some fixes so bind mounts are not mounted each time the
+   playbook runs.
