-      **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 on one of the public [IRC meetings] we have just
-      for this.

+Coding Guidelines
+=================
+
+Hi!  Thanks for interest in contributing to Ansible.
+
+Here are some guidelines for contributing code.  The purpose of this document are to establish what we're looking for in code contributions, and to make sure
+new contributions 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!!  
+
+PEP8 and basic style checks
+===========================
+
+  * PEP8 is a great Python style guide, which you should read.
+  * PEP8 must not be strictly followed in all aspects, but most of it is good advice
+  * In particular, we don't really care about line lengths.  Buy a bigger monitor!
+  * To run checks for things we care about, run "make pep8"
+  * Similarly, additional checks can be made with "make pyflakes"
+  * There is no need to submit code changes for pep8 and pyflake 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 is 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 a 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 use need 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
+    )
+
+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.compat.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 intertwingling 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 exception 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, and multinode orchestration - including trivializing things like zero downtime rolling updates with load balancers.
+
+Read the documentation and more at https://ansible.com/
+
+Many users run straight from the development branch (it's generally fine to do so), but you might also wish to consume a release.  
+
+You can find instructions [here](https://docs.ansible.com/intro_getting_started.html) for a variety of platforms.  If you decide to go with the development branch, be sure to run `git submodule update --init --recursive` after doing a checkout. 
+
+If you want to download a tarball of a release, go to [releases.ansible.com](https://releases.ansible.com/ansible), though most users use `yum` (using the EPEL instructions linked above), `apt` (using the PPA instructions linked above), or `pip install ansible`.
+
+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 and 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.
+   * As of 1.8, modules are kept in different repos, you'll want to follow [core](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core) and [extras](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-extras)
+   * 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.

-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.
-
-Get Involved
-============
-
-*  Read `Community
-   Information <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community>`_ 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.
-*  Join a `Working Group
-   <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki>`_, an organized community devoted to a specific technology domain or platform.
-*  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.
-*  For a list of email lists, IRC channels and Working Groups, see the
-   `Communication page <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/community/communication.html>`_
-
-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/latest/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.

+*******************************
+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:
+
+  - Ansible's google-group: ansible-devel
+  -  Ansible Fest conferences.  
+  - IRC freenode channel: #ansible-devel (this one may have things lost in lots of conversation, so a caution).
+
+=======================================
+Current 2.2 Roadmap is open for comment
+=======================================
+We are currently trying to finalize the 2.2 Roadmap, targeted for September delivery.  We are seeking community feedback for 2.2.  That document is here:  
+
+`2.2 Roadmap Document <docsite/rst/roadmap/ROADMAP_2_2.rst>`_
+
+
+**Old Roadmaps are found here:**
+ - `2.1 Roadmap Document <docsite/rst/roadmap/ROADMAP_2_1.rst>`_

-=================================================
-ansible-core 2.14 "C'mon Everybody" Release Notes
-=================================================
-
-.. contents:: Topics
-
-
-v2.14.0b1
-=========
-
-Release Summary
----------------
-
-| Release Date: 2022-09-26
-| `Porting Guide <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides.html>`__
-
-
-Major Changes
--------------
-
-- Move handler processing into new ``PlayIterator`` phase to use the configured strategy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65067)
-- ansible - At startup the filesystem encoding and locale are checked to verify they are UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding.
-- ansible - Increase minimum Python requirement to Python 3.9 for CLI utilities and controller code
-- ansible-test - At startup the filesystem encoding is checked to verify it is UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding.
-- ansible-test - At startup the locale is configured as ``en_US.UTF-8``, with a fallback to ``C.UTF-8``. If neither encoding is available the process exits with an error. If the fallback is used, a warning is displayed. In previous versions the ``en_US.UTF-8`` locale was always requested. However, no startup checking was performed to verify the locale was successfully configured.
-
-Minor Changes
--------------
-
-- Add a new "INVENTORY_UNPARSED_WARNING" flag add to hide the "No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available" warning
-- Add an 'action_plugin' field for modules in runtime.yml plugin_routing.
-
-  This fixes module_defaults by supporting modules-as-redirected-actions
-  without redirecting module_defaults entries to the common action.
-
-  .. code: yaml
-
-     plugin_routing:
-       action:
-         facts:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos
-         command:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos
-       modules:
-         facts:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos_facts
-         command:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos_command
-
-  With the runtime.yml above for ns.coll, a task such as
-
-  .. code: yaml
-
-     - hosts: all
-       module_defaults:
-         ns.coll.eos_facts: {'valid_for_eos_facts': 'value'}
-         ns.coll.eos_command: {'not_valid_for_eos_facts': 'value'}
-       tasks:
-         - ns.coll.facts:
-
-  will end up with defaults for eos_facts and eos_command
-  since both modules redirect to the same action.
-
-  To select an action plugin for a module without merging
-  module_defaults, define an action_plugin field for the resolved
-  module in the runtime.yml.
-
-  .. code: yaml
-
-     plugin_routing:
-       modules:
-         facts:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos_facts
-           action_plugin: ns.coll.eos
-         command:
-           redirect: ns.coll.eos_command
-           action_plugin: ns.coll.eos
-
-  The action_plugin field can be a redirected action plugin, as
-  it is resolved normally.
-
-  Using the modified runtime.yml, the example task will only use
-  the ns.coll.eos_facts defaults.
-- Add support for parsing ``-a`` module options as JSON and not just key=value arguments - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78112
-- Added Kylin Linux Advanced Server OS in RedHat OS Family.
-- Allow ``when`` conditionals to be used on ``flush_handlers`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77616)
-- Allow meta tasks to be used as handlers.
-- Display - The display class will now proxy calls to Display.display via the queue from forks/workers to be handled by the parent process for actual display. This reduces some reliance on the fork start method and improves reliability of displaying messages.
-- Jinja version test - Add pep440 version_type for version test. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78288)
-- Loops - Add new ``loop_control.extended_allitems`` to allow users to disable tracking all loop items for each loop (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75216)
-- NetBSD - Add uptime_seconds fact
-- Provide a `utc` option for strftime to show time in UTC rather than local time
-- Raise a proper error when ``include_role`` or ``import_role`` is used as a handler.
-- Remove the ``AnsibleContext.resolve`` method as its override is not necessary. Furthermore the ability to override the ``resolve`` method was deprecated in Jinja 3.0.0 and removed in Jinja 3.1.0.
-- Utilize @classmethod and @property together to form classproperty (Python 3.9) to access field attributes of a class
-- ``LoopControl`` is now templated through standard ``post_validate`` method (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75715)
-- ``ansible-galaxy collection install`` - add an ``--offline`` option to prevent querying distribution servers (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77443).
-- ansible - Add support for Python 3.11 to Python interpreter discovery.
-- ansible - At startup the stdin/stdout/stderr file handles are checked to verify they are using blocking IO. If not, the process exits with an error reporting which file handle(s) are using non-blocking IO.
-- ansible-config adds JSON and YAML output formats for list and dump actions.
-- ansible-connection now supports verbosity directly on cli
-- ansible-console added 'collections' command to match playbook keyword.
-- ansible-doc - remove some of the manual formatting, and use YAML more uniformly. This in particular means that ``true`` and ``false`` are used for boolean values, instead of ``True`` and ``False`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78668).
-- ansible-galaxy - Support resolvelib versions 0.6.x, 0.7.x, and 0.8.x. The full range of supported versions is now >= 0.5.3, < 0.9.0.
-- ansible-galaxy now supports a user defined timeout,  instead of existing hardcoded 60s (now the default).
-- ansible-test - Add FreeBSD 13.1 remote support.
-- ansible-test - Add RHEL 9.0 remote support.
-- ansible-test - Add support for Python 3.11.
-- ansible-test - Add support for RHEL 8.6 remotes.
-- ansible-test - Add support for Ubuntu VMs using the ``--remote`` option.
-- ansible-test - Add support for exporting inventory with ``ansible-test shell --export {path}``.
-- ansible-test - Add support for multi-arch remotes.
-- ansible-test - Add support for provisioning Alpine 3.16 remote instances.
-- ansible-test - Add support for provisioning Fedora 36 remote instances.
-- ansible-test - Add support for provisioning Ubuntu 20.04 remote instances.
-- ansible-test - Add support for provisioning remotes which require ``doas`` for become.
-- ansible-test - Add support for running non-interactive commands with ``ansible-test shell``.
-- ansible-test - Alpine remotes now use ``sudo`` for tests, using ``doas`` only for bootstrapping.
-- ansible-test - An improved error message is shown when the download of a pip bootstrap script fails. The download now uses ``urllib2`` instead of ``urllib`` on Python 2.
-- ansible-test - Avoid using the ``mock_use_standalone_module`` setting for unit tests running on Python 3.8 or later.
-- ansible-test - Become support for remote instance provisioning is no longer tied to a fixed list of platforms.
-- ansible-test - Blocking mode is now enforced for stdin, stdout and stderr. If any of these are non-blocking then ansible-test will exit during startup with an error.
-- ansible-test - Distribution specific test containers are now multi-arch, supporting both x86_64 and aarch64.
-- ansible-test - Distribution specific test containers no longer contain a ``/etc/ansible/hosts`` file.
-- ansible-test - Enable loading of ``coverage`` data files created by older supported ansible-test releases.
-- ansible-test - Fedora 36 has been added as a test container.
-- ansible-test - FreeBSD remotes now use ``sudo`` for tests, using ``su`` only for bootstrapping.
-- ansible-test - Improve consistency of output messages by using stdout or stderr for most output, but not both.
-- ansible-test - Remote Alpine instances now have the ``acl`` package installed.
-- ansible-test - Remote Fedora instances now have the ``acl`` package installed.
-- ansible-test - Remote FreeBSD instances now have ACLs enabled on the root filesystem.
-- ansible-test - Remote Ubuntu instances now have the ``acl`` package installed.
-- ansible-test - Remove Fedora 34 test container.
-- ansible-test - Remove Fedora 35 test container.
-- ansible-test - Remove FreeBSD 13.0 remote support.
-- ansible-test - Remove RHEL 8.5 remote support.
-- ansible-test - Remove Ubuntu 18.04 test container.
-- ansible-test - Remove support for Python 2.7 on provisioned FreeBSD instances.
-- ansible-test - Remove support for Python 3.8 on the controller.
-- ansible-test - Remove the ``opensuse15py2`` container.
-- ansible-test - Support multiple pinned versions of the ``coverage`` module. The version used now depends on the Python version in use.
-- ansible-test - Test containers have been updated to remove the ``VOLUME`` instruction.
-- ansible-test - The Alpine 3 test container has been updated to Alpine 3.16.0.
-- ansible-test - The ``http-test-container`` container is now multi-arch, supporting both x86_64 and aarch64.
-- ansible-test - The ``pypi-test-container`` container is now multi-arch, supporting both x86_64 and aarch64.
-- ansible-test - The ``shell`` command can be used outside a collection if no controller delegation is required.
-- ansible-test - The openSUSE test container has been updated to openSUSE Leap 15.4.
-- ansible-test - Ubuntu 22.04 has been added as a test container.
-- ansible-test - Update pinned sanity test requirements for all tests.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``base`` container to 3.4.0.
-- ansible-test - Update the ``default`` containers to 6.6.0.
-- apt_repository remove dependency on apt-key and use gpg + /usr/share/keyrings directly instead
-- blockinfile - The presence of the multiline flag (?m) in the regular expression for insertafter opr insertbefore controls whether the match is done line by line or with multiple lines (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75090).
-- calls to listify_lookup_plugin_terms in core do not pass in loader/dataloader anymore.
-- collections - ``ansible-galaxy collection build`` can now utilize ``MANIFEST.in`` style directives from ``galaxy.yml`` instead of ``build_ignore`` effectively inverting the logic from include by default, to exclude by default. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78422)
-- config manager, move templating into main query function in config instead of constants
-- config manager, remove updates to configdata as it is mostly unused
-- configuration entry INTERPRETER_PYTHON_DISTRO_MAP is now 'private' and won't show up in normal configuration queries and docs, since it is not 'settable' this avoids user confusion.
-- distribution - add distribution_minor_version for Debian Distro (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74481).
-- documentation construction now gives more information on error.
-- facts - add OSMC to Debian os_family mapping
-- get_url - permit to pass to parameter ``checksum`` an URL pointing to a file containing only a checksum (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/54390).
-- new tests url, uri and urn will verify string as such, but they don't check existance of the resource
-- plugin loader - add ansible_name and ansible_aliases attributes to plugin objects/classes.
-- systemd is now systemd_service to better reflect the scope of the module, systemd is kept as an alias for backwards compatibility.
-- templating - removed internal template cache
-- uri - cleanup write_file method, remove overkill safety checks and report any exception, change shutilcopyfile to use module.atomic_move
-- urls - Add support to specify SSL/TLS ciphers to use during a request (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78633)
-- validate-modules - Allow ``type: raw`` on a module return type definition for values that have a dynamic type
-- version output now includes the path to the python executable that Ansible is running under
-- yum_repository - do not give the ``async`` parameter a default value anymore, since this option is deprecated in RHEL 8. This means that ``async = 1`` won't be added to repository files if omitted, but it can still be set explicitly if needed.

-- Allow for lazy evaluation of Jinja2 expressions (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/56017)
-- The default ansible-galaxy role skeletons no longer contain .travis.yml files. You can configure ansible-galaxy to use a custom role skeleton that contains a .travis.yml file to continue using Galaxy's integration with Travis CI.
-- ansible - At startup the filesystem encoding and locale are checked to verify they are UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding.
-- ansible - Increase minimum Python requirement to Python 3.9 for CLI utilities and controller code
-- ansible-test - At startup the filesystem encoding is checked to verify it is UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding.
-- ansible-test - At startup the locale is configured as ``en_US.UTF-8``, with a fallback to ``C.UTF-8``. If neither encoding is available the process exits with an error. If the fallback is used, a warning is displayed. In previous versions the ``en_US.UTF-8`` locale was always requested. However, no startup checking was performed to verify the locale was successfully configured.
-- strategy plugins - Make ``ignore_unreachable`` to increase ``ignored`` and ``ok`` and  counter, not ``skipped`` and ``unreachable``. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77690)
-
-Deprecated Features
--------------------
-
-- Deprecate ability of lookup plugins to return arbitrary data. Lookup plugins must return lists, failing to do so will be an error in 2.18. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77788)
-- Encryption - Deprecate use of the Python crypt module due to it's impending removal from Python 3.13
-- PlayContext.verbosity is deprecated and will be removed in 2.18. Use ansible.utils.display.Display().verbosity as the single source of truth.
-- ``DEFAULT_FACT_PATH``, ``DEFAULT_GATHER_SUBSET`` and ``DEFAULT_GATHER_TIMEOUT`` are deprecated and will be removed in 2.18. Use ``module_defaults`` keyword instead.
-- ``PlayIterator`` - deprecate ``cache_block_tasks`` and ``get_original_task`` which are noop and unused.
-- ``Templar`` - deprecate ``shared_loader_obj`` option which is unused. ``ansible.plugins.loader`` is used directly instead.
-- listify_lookup_plugin_terms, deprecate 'loader/dataloader' parameter as it not used.
-- vars plugins - determining whether or not to run ansible.legacy vars plugins with the class attribute REQUIRES_WHITELIST is deprecated, set REQUIRES_ENABLED instead.

-- ansible-galaxy - Fix detection of ``--role-file`` in arguments for implicit role invocation (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78204)
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix exit codes for role search and delete (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78516)
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix loading boolean server options so False doesn't become a truthy string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77416).
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix reinitializing the whole collection directory with ``ansible-galaxy collection init ns.coll --force``. Now directories and files that are not included in the collection skeleton will be removed.
-- ansible-galaxy - Fix unhandled traceback if a role's dependencies in meta/main.yml or meta/requirements.yml are not lists.
-- ansible-galaxy - do not require mandatory keys in the ``galaxy.yml`` of source collections when listing them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70180).
-- ansible-galaxy - fix installing collections that have dependencies in the metadata set to null instead of an empty dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77560).

-- ansible-galaxy - fix setting the cache for paginated responses from Galaxy NG/AH (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77911).
-- ansible-galaxy - handle unsupported versions of resolvelib gracefully.
-- ansible-galaxy --ignore-certs now has proper precedence over configuration
-- ansible-test - Allow disabled, unsupported, unstable and destructive integration test targets to be selected using their respective prefixes.
-- ansible-test - Allow unstable tests to run when targeted changes are made and the ``--allow-unstable-changed`` option is specified (resolves https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74213).
-- ansible-test - Always remove containers after failing to create/run them. This avoids leaving behind created containers when using podman.
-- ansible-test - Correctly detect when running as the ``root`` user (UID 0) on the origin host. The result of the detection was incorrectly being inverted.
-- ansible-test - Delegation for commands which generate output for programmatic consumption no longer redirect all output to stdout. The affected commands and options are ``shell``, ``sanity --lint``, ``sanity --list-tests``, ``integration --list-targets``, ``coverage analyze``
-- ansible-test - Delegation now properly handles arguments given after ``--`` on the command line.
-- ansible-test - Don't fail if network cannot be disconnected (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77472)
-- ansible-test - Fix bootstrapping of Python 3.9 on Ubuntu 20.04 remotes.
-- ansible-test - Fix change detection for ansible-test's own integration tests.
-- ansible-test - Fix internal validation of remote completion configuration.
-- ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/python`` on the origin host.
-- ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/root`` on the origin host.
-- ansible-test - Prevent ``--target-`` prefixed options for the ``shell`` command from being combined with legacy environment options.
-- ansible-test - Sanity test output with the ``--lint`` option is no longer mixed in with bootstrapping output.
-- ansible-test - Subprocesses are now isolated from the stdin, stdout and stderr of ansible-test. This avoids issues with subprocesses tampering with the file descriptors, such as SSH making them non-blocking. As a result of this change, subprocess output from unit and integration tests on stderr now go to stdout.
-- ansible-test - Subprocesses no longer have access to the TTY ansible-test is connected to, if any. This maintains consistent behavior between local testing and CI systems, which typically do not provide a TTY. Tests which require a TTY should use pexpect or another mechanism to create a PTY.
-- ansible-test - Temporary executables are now verified as executable after creation. Without this check, path injected scripts may not be found, typically on systems with ``/tmp`` mounted using the "noexec" option. This can manifest as a missing Python interpreter, or use of the wrong Python interpreter, as well as other error conditions.
-- ansible-test - Test configuration for collections is now parsed only once, prior to delegation. Fixes issue: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78334
-- ansible-test - Test containers are now run with the ``--tmpfs`` option for ``/tmp``, ``/run`` and ``/run/lock``. This allows use of containers built without the ``VOLUME`` instruction. Additionally, containers with those volumes defined no longer create anonymous volumes for them. This avoids leaving behind volumes on the container host after the container is stopped and deleted.
-- ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer redirects all output to stdout when running a provided command. Any command output written to stderr will be mixed with the stderr output from ansible-test.
-- ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer requests a TTY when using delegation unless an interactive shell is being used. An interactive shell is the default behavior when no command is given to pass to the shell.
-- ansible-test - ansible-doc sanity test - Correctly determine the fully-qualified collection name for plugins in subdirectories, resolving https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78490.
-- ansible-test - validate-modules - Documentation-only modules, used for documenting actions, are now allowed to have docstrings (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77972).
-- ansible-test compile sanity test - do not crash if a column could not be determined for an error (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77465).
-- apt - Fix module failure when a package is not installed and only_upgrade=True. Skip that package and check the remaining requested packages for upgrades. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78762)
-- apt - don't actually update the cache in check mode with update_cache=true.
-- apt - don't mark existing packages as manually installed in check mode (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66413).
-- apt - fix package selection to include /etc/apt/preferences(.d) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77969)
-- apt module now correctly handles virtual packages.
-- arg_spec - Fix incorrect ``no_log`` warning when a parameter alias is used (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77576)
-- callback plugins - do not crash when ``exception`` passed from a module is not a string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75726, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77781).
-- cli now emits clearer error on no hosts selected
-- config, ensure that pulling values from configmanager are templated if possible.
-- display itself should be single source of 'verbosity' level to the engine.
-- dnf - Condense a few internal boolean returns.
-- dnf - The ``nobest`` option now also works for ``state=latest``.
-- dnf - The ``skip_broken`` option is now used in installs (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73072).
-- dnf - fix output parsing on systems with ``LANGUAGE`` set to a language other than English (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78193)
-- facts - fix IP address discovery for specific interface names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77792).
-- facts - fix processor facts on AIX: correctly detect number of cores and threads, turn ``processor`` into a list (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78223).
-- fetch_file - Ensure we only use the filename when calculating a tempfile, and do not incude the query string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/29680)
-- fetch_file - properly split files with multiple file extensions (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75257)
-- file - setting attributes of symbolic links or files that are hard linked no longer fails when the link target is unspecified (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76142).
-- file backed cache plugins now handle concurrent access by making atomic updates to the files.
-- git module fix docs and proper use of ssh wrapper script and GIT_SSH_COMMAND depending on version.
-- if a config setting prevents running ansible it should at least show it's "origin".
-- include module - add docs url to include deprecation message (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76684).
-- items2dict - Handle error if an item is not a dictionary or is missing the required keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70337).
-- local facts - if a local fact in the facts directory cannot be stated, store an error message as the fact value and emit a warning just as if just as if the facts execution has failed. The stat can fail e.g. on dangling symlinks.
-- lookup plugin - catch KeyError when lookup returns dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77789).
-- module_utils - Make distro.id() report newer versions of OpenSuSE (at least >=15) also report as ``opensuse``. They report themselves as ``opensuse-leap``.
-- module_utils.service - daemonize - Avoid modifying the list of file descriptors while iterating over it.
-- null_representation config entry changed to 'raw' as it must allow 'none/null' and empty string.
-- paramiko - Add a new option to allow paramiko >= 2.9 to easily work with all devices now that rsa-sha2 support was added to paramiko, which prevented communication with numerous platforms. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76737)
-- paramiko - Add back support for ``ssh_args``, ``ssh_common_args``, and ``ssh_extra_args`` for parsing the ``ProxyCommand`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78750)
-- password lookup does not ignore k=v arguments anymore.
-- pause module will now report proper 'echo' vs always being true.
-- pip - fix cases where resolution of pip Python module fails when importlib.util has not already been imported
-- plugin loader - Sort results when fuzzy matching plugin names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77966).
-- plugin loader will now load config data for plugin by name instead of by file to avoid issues with the same file being loaded under different names (fqcn + short name).
-- plugin loader, now when skipping a plugin due to an abstract method error we provide that in 'verbose' mode instead of totally obscuring the error. The current implementation assumed only the base classes would trigger this and failed to consider 'in development' plugins.
-- prevent lusermod from using group name instead of group id (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77914)
-- prevent type annotation shim failures from causing runtime failures (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77860)
-- psrp connection now handles default to inventory_hostname correctly.
-- roles, fixed issue with roles loading paths not contained in the role itself when using the `_from` options.
-- setup - Adds a default value to ``lvm_facts`` when lvm or lvm2 is not installed on linux (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/17393)
-- shell plugins now give a more user friendly error when fed the wrong type of data.
-- template module/lookup - fix ``convert_data`` option that was effectively always set to True for Jinja macros (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78141)
-- unarchive - if unzip is available but zipinfo is not, use unzip -Z instead of zipinfo (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76959).
-- uri - properly use uri parameter use_proxy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/58632)
-- uri module - failed status when Authentication Bearer used with netrc, because Basic authentication was by default. Fix now allows to ignore netrc by changing use_netrc=False (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74397).
-- urls - Guard imports of ``urllib3`` by catching ``Exception`` instead of ``ImportError`` to prevent exceptions in the import process of optional dependencies from preventing use of ``urls.py`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78648)
-- user - Fix error "Permission denied" in user module while generating SSH keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78017).
-- user - fix creating a local user if the user group already exists (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75042)
-- user module - Replace uses of the deprecated ``spwd`` python module with ctypes (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78050)
-- validate-modules - fix validating version_added for new options.
-- variablemanager, more efficient read of vars files
-- vault secrets file now executes in the correct context when it is a symlink (not resolved to canonical file).
-- wait_for - Read file and perform comparisons using bytes to avoid decode errors (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78214)
-- winrm - Ensure ``kinit`` is run with the same ``PATH`` env var as the Ansible process
-- winrm connection now handles default to inventory_hostname correctly.
-- yaml inventory plugin - fix the error message for non-string hostnames (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77519).
-- yum - fix traceback when ``releasever`` is specified with ``latest`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78058)

-      - ansible-doc will now not display version_added_collection under same conditions
-        it does not display version_added.
-      - ansible-galaxy - Fix detection of ``--role-file`` in arguments for implicit
-        role invocation (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78204)

-      - ansible-galaxy - Fix loading boolean server options so False doesn't become
-        a truthy string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77416).
-      - ansible-galaxy - Fix reinitializing the whole collection directory with ``ansible-galaxy
-        collection init ns.coll --force``. Now directories and files that are not
-        included in the collection skeleton will be removed.
-      - ansible-galaxy - Fix unhandled traceback if a role's dependencies in meta/main.yml
-        or meta/requirements.yml are not lists.
-      - ansible-galaxy - do not require mandatory keys in the ``galaxy.yml`` of source
-        collections when listing them (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70180).
-      - ansible-galaxy - fix installing collections that have dependencies in the
-        metadata set to null instead of an empty dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77560).
-      - ansible-galaxy - fix listing collections that contains metadata but the namespace
-        or name are not strings.
-      - ansible-galaxy - fix missing meta/runtime.yml in default galaxy skeleton used
-        for ansible-galaxy collection init
-      - ansible-galaxy - fix setting the cache for paginated responses from Galaxy
-        NG/AH (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77911).
-      - ansible-galaxy - handle unsupported versions of resolvelib gracefully.
-      - ansible-galaxy --ignore-certs now has proper precedence over configuration
-      - ansible-test - Allow disabled, unsupported, unstable and destructive integration
-        test targets to be selected using their respective prefixes.
-      - ansible-test - Allow unstable tests to run when targeted changes are made
-        and the ``--allow-unstable-changed`` option is specified (resolves https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74213).
-      - ansible-test - Always remove containers after failing to create/run them.
-        This avoids leaving behind created containers when using podman.
-      - ansible-test - Correctly detect when running as the ``root`` user (UID 0)
-        on the origin host. The result of the detection was incorrectly being inverted.
-      - ansible-test - Delegation for commands which generate output for programmatic
-        consumption no longer redirect all output to stdout. The affected commands
-        and options are ``shell``, ``sanity --lint``, ``sanity --list-tests``, ``integration
-        --list-targets``, ``coverage analyze``
-      - ansible-test - Delegation now properly handles arguments given after ``--``
-        on the command line.
-      - ansible-test - Don't fail if network cannot be disconnected (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77472)
-      - ansible-test - Fix bootstrapping of Python 3.9 on Ubuntu 20.04 remotes.
-      - ansible-test - Fix change detection for ansible-test's own integration tests.
-      - ansible-test - Fix internal validation of remote completion configuration.
-      - ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/python`` on the origin
-        host.
-      - ansible-test - Fix skipping of tests marked ``needs/root`` on the origin host.
-      - ansible-test - Prevent ``--target-`` prefixed options for the ``shell`` command
-        from being combined with legacy environment options.
-      - ansible-test - Sanity test output with the ``--lint`` option is no longer
-        mixed in with bootstrapping output.
-      - ansible-test - Subprocesses are now isolated from the stdin, stdout and stderr
-        of ansible-test. This avoids issues with subprocesses tampering with the file
-        descriptors, such as SSH making them non-blocking. As a result of this change,
-        subprocess output from unit and integration tests on stderr now go to stdout.
-      - ansible-test - Subprocesses no longer have access to the TTY ansible-test
-        is connected to, if any. This maintains consistent behavior between local
-        testing and CI systems, which typically do not provide a TTY. Tests which
-        require a TTY should use pexpect or another mechanism to create a PTY.
-      - ansible-test - Temporary executables are now verified as executable after
-        creation. Without this check, path injected scripts may not be found, typically
-        on systems with ``/tmp`` mounted using the "noexec" option. This can manifest
-        as a missing Python interpreter, or use of the wrong Python interpreter, as
-        well as other error conditions.
-      - 'ansible-test - Test configuration for collections is now parsed only once,
-        prior to delegation. Fixes issue: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78334'
-      - ansible-test - Test containers are now run with the ``--tmpfs`` option for
-        ``/tmp``, ``/run`` and ``/run/lock``. This allows use of containers built
-        without the ``VOLUME`` instruction. Additionally, containers with those volumes
-        defined no longer create anonymous volumes for them. This avoids leaving behind
-        volumes on the container host after the container is stopped and deleted.
-      - ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer redirects all output to stdout
-        when running a provided command. Any command output written to stderr will
-        be mixed with the stderr output from ansible-test.
-      - ansible-test - The ``shell`` command no longer requests a TTY when using delegation
-        unless an interactive shell is being used. An interactive shell is the default
-        behavior when no command is given to pass to the shell.
-      - ansible-test - ansible-doc sanity test - Correctly determine the fully-qualified
-        collection name for plugins in subdirectories, resolving https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78490.
-      - ansible-test - validate-modules - Documentation-only modules, used for documenting
-        actions, are now allowed to have docstrings (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77972).
-      - ansible-test compile sanity test - do not crash if a column could not be determined
-        for an error (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77465).
-      - apt - Fix module failure when a package is not installed and only_upgrade=True.
-        Skip that package and check the remaining requested packages for upgrades.
-        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78762)
-      - apt - don't actually update the cache in check mode with update_cache=true.
-      - apt - don't mark existing packages as manually installed in check mode (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/66413).
-      - apt - fix package selection to include /etc/apt/preferences(.d) (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77969)
-      - apt module now correctly handles virtual packages.
-      - arg_spec - Fix incorrect ``no_log`` warning when a parameter alias is used
-        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77576)
-      - callback plugins - do not crash when ``exception`` passed from a module is
-        not a string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75726, https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77781).
-      - cli now emits clearer error on no hosts selected
-      - config, ensure that pulling values from configmanager are templated if possible.
-      - display itself should be single source of 'verbosity' level to the engine.
-      - dnf - Condense a few internal boolean returns.
-      - dnf - The ``nobest`` option now also works for ``state=latest``.
-      - dnf - The ``skip_broken`` option is now used in installs (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/73072).
-      - dnf - fix output parsing on systems with ``LANGUAGE`` set to a language other
-        than English (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78193)
-      - facts - fix IP address discovery for specific interface names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77792).
-      - 'facts - fix processor facts on AIX: correctly detect number of cores and
-        threads, turn ``processor`` into a list (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78223).'
-      - fetch_file - Ensure we only use the filename when calculating a tempfile,
-        and do not incude the query string (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/29680)
-      - fetch_file - properly split files with multiple file extensions (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75257)
-      - file - setting attributes of symbolic links or files that are hard linked
-        no longer fails when the link target is unspecified (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76142).
-      - file backed cache plugins now handle concurrent access by making atomic updates
-        to the files.
-      - git module fix docs and proper use of ssh wrapper script and GIT_SSH_COMMAND
-        depending on version.
-      - if a config setting prevents running ansible it should at least show it's
-        "origin".
-      - include module - add docs url to include deprecation message (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76684).
-      - items2dict - Handle error if an item is not a dictionary or is missing the
-        required keys (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/70337).
-      - local facts - if a local fact in the facts directory cannot be stated, store
-        an error message as the fact value and emit a warning just as if just as if
-        the facts execution has failed. The stat can fail e.g. on dangling symlinks.
-      - lookup plugin - catch KeyError when lookup returns dictionary (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77789).
-      - module_utils - Make distro.id() report newer versions of OpenSuSE (at least
-        >=15) also report as ``opensuse``. They report themselves as ``opensuse-leap``.
-      - module_utils.service - daemonize - Avoid modifying the list of file descriptors
-        while iterating over it.
-      - null_representation config entry changed to 'raw' as it must allow 'none/null'
-        and empty string.
-      - paramiko - Add a new option to allow paramiko >= 2.9 to easily work with all
-        devices now that rsa-sha2 support was added to paramiko, which prevented communication
-        with numerous platforms. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76737)
-      - paramiko - Add back support for ``ssh_args``, ``ssh_common_args``, and ``ssh_extra_args``
-        for parsing the ``ProxyCommand`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78750)
-      - password lookup does not ignore k=v arguments anymore.
-      - pause module will now report proper 'echo' vs always being true.
-      - pip - fix cases where resolution of pip Python module fails when importlib.util
-        has not already been imported
-      - plugin loader - Sort results when fuzzy matching plugin names (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77966).
-      - plugin loader will now load config data for plugin by name instead of by file
-        to avoid issues with the same file being loaded under different names (fqcn
-        + short name).
-      - plugin loader, now when skipping a plugin due to an abstract method error
-        we provide that in 'verbose' mode instead of totally obscuring the error.
-        The current implementation assumed only the base classes would trigger this
-        and failed to consider 'in development' plugins.
-      - prevent lusermod from using group name instead of group id (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77914)
-      - prevent type annotation shim failures from causing runtime failures (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/77860)
-      - psrp connection now handles default to inventory_hostname correctly.
-      - roles, fixed issue with roles loading paths not contained in the role itself
-        when using the `_from` options.
-      - setup - Adds a default value to ``lvm_facts`` when lvm or lvm2 is not installed
-        on linux (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/17393)
-      - shell plugins now give a more user friendly error when fed the wrong type
-        of data.
-      - template module/lookup - fix ``convert_data`` option that was effectively
-        always set to True for Jinja macros (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78141)
-      - unarchive - if unzip is available but zipinfo is not, use unzip -Z instead
-        of zipinfo (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/76959).
-      - uri - properly use uri parameter use_proxy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/58632)
-      - uri module - failed status when Authentication Bearer used with netrc, because
-        Basic authentication was by default. Fix now allows to ignore netrc by changing
-        use_netrc=False (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74397).
-      - urls - Guard imports of ``urllib3`` by catching ``Exception`` instead of ``ImportError``
-        to prevent exceptions in the import process of optional dependencies from
-        preventing use of ``urls.py`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78648)
-      - user - Fix error "Permission denied" in user module while generating SSH keys
-        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78017).
-      - user - fix creating a local user if the user group already exists (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/75042)
-      - user module - Replace uses of the deprecated ``spwd`` python module with ctypes
-        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78050)
-      - validate-modules - fix validating version_added for new options.
-      - variablemanager, more efficient read of vars files
-      - vault secrets file now executes in the correct context when it is a symlink
-        (not resolved to canonical file).
-      - wait_for - Read file and perform comparisons using bytes to avoid decode errors
-        (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78214)
-      - winrm - Ensure ``kinit`` is run with the same ``PATH`` env var as the Ansible
-        process
-      - winrm connection now handles default to inventory_hostname correctly.
-      - yaml inventory plugin - fix the error message for non-string hostnames (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77519).
-      - yum - fix traceback when ``releasever`` is specified with ``latest`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78058)
-      deprecated_features:
-      - Deprecate ability of lookup plugins to return arbitrary data. Lookup plugins
-        must return lists, failing to do so will be an error in 2.18. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77788)
-      - Encryption - Deprecate use of the Python crypt module due to it's impending
-        removal from Python 3.13
-      - PlayContext.verbosity is deprecated and will be removed in 2.18. Use ansible.utils.display.Display().verbosity
-        as the single source of truth.
-      - '``DEFAULT_FACT_PATH``, ``DEFAULT_GATHER_SUBSET`` and ``DEFAULT_GATHER_TIMEOUT``
-        are deprecated and will be removed in 2.18. Use ``module_defaults`` keyword
-        instead.'
-      - '``PlayIterator`` - deprecate ``cache_block_tasks`` and ``get_original_task``
-        which are noop and unused.'
-      - '``Templar`` - deprecate ``shared_loader_obj`` option which is unused. ``ansible.plugins.loader``
-        is used directly instead.'
-      - listify_lookup_plugin_terms, deprecate 'loader/dataloader' parameter as it
-        not used.
-      - vars plugins - determining whether or not to run ansible.legacy vars plugins
-        with the class attribute REQUIRES_WHITELIST is deprecated, set REQUIRES_ENABLED
-        instead.
-      major_changes:
-      - Move handler processing into new ``PlayIterator`` phase to use the configured
-        strategy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/65067)
-      - ansible - At startup the filesystem encoding and locale are checked to verify
-        they are UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant
-        encoding.
-      - ansible - Increase minimum Python requirement to Python 3.9 for CLI utilities
-        and controller code
-      - ansible-test - At startup the filesystem encoding is checked to verify it
-        is UTF-8. If not, the process exits with an error reporting the errant encoding.
-      - ansible-test - At startup the locale is configured as ``en_US.UTF-8``, with
-        a fallback to ``C.UTF-8``. If neither encoding is available the process exits
-        with an error. If the fallback is used, a warning is displayed. In previous
-        versions the ``en_US.UTF-8`` locale was always requested. However, no startup
-        checking was performed to verify the locale was successfully configured.
-      minor_changes:
-      - Add a new "INVENTORY_UNPARSED_WARNING" flag add to hide the "No inventory
-        was parsed, only implicit localhost is available" warning
-      - "Add an 'action_plugin' field for modules in runtime.yml plugin_routing.\n\nThis
-        fixes module_defaults by supporting modules-as-redirected-actions\nwithout

-      - Allow ``when`` conditionals to be used on ``flush_handlers`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/77616)
-      - Allow meta tasks to be used as handlers.
-      - Display - The display class will now proxy calls to Display.display via the
-        queue from forks/workers to be handled by the parent process for actual display.
-        This reduces some reliance on the fork start method and improves reliability
-        of displaying messages.
-      - Jinja version test - Add pep440 version_type for version test. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78288)
-      - Loops - Add new ``loop_control.extended_allitems`` to allow users to disable
-        tracking all loop items for each loop (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75216)
-      - NetBSD - Add uptime_seconds fact
-      - Provide a `utc` option for strftime to show time in UTC rather than local
-        time
-      - Raise a proper error when ``include_role`` or ``import_role`` is used as a
-        handler.
-      - Remove the ``AnsibleContext.resolve`` method as its override is not necessary.
-        Furthermore the ability to override the ``resolve`` method was deprecated
-        in Jinja 3.0.0 and removed in Jinja 3.1.0.
-      - Utilize @classmethod and @property together to form classproperty (Python
-        3.9) to access field attributes of a class

-      - ansible - At startup the stdin/stdout/stderr file handles are checked to verify
-        they are using blocking IO. If not, the process exits with an error reporting
-        which file handle(s) are using non-blocking IO.
-      - ansible-config adds JSON and YAML output formats for list and dump actions.
-      - ansible-connection now supports verbosity directly on cli
-      - ansible-console added 'collections' command to match playbook keyword.
-      - ansible-doc - remove some of the manual formatting, and use YAML more uniformly.
-        This in particular means that ``true`` and ``false`` are used for boolean
-        values, instead of ``True`` and ``False`` (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78668).
-      - ansible-galaxy - Support resolvelib versions 0.6.x, 0.7.x, and 0.8.x. The
-        full range of supported versions is now >= 0.5.3, < 0.9.0.
-      - ansible-galaxy now supports a user defined timeout,  instead of existing hardcoded
-        60s (now the default).
-      - ansible-test - Add FreeBSD 13.1 remote support.
-      - ansible-test - Add RHEL 9.0 remote support.
-      - ansible-test - Add support for Python 3.11.
-      - ansible-test - Add support for RHEL 8.6 remotes.
-      - ansible-test - Add support for Ubuntu VMs using the ``--remote`` option.
-      - ansible-test - Add support for exporting inventory with ``ansible-test shell

-        for become.
-      - ansible-test - Add support for running non-interactive commands with ``ansible-test
-        shell``.
-      - ansible-test - Alpine remotes now use ``sudo`` for tests, using ``doas`` only
-        for bootstrapping.
-      - ansible-test - An improved error message is shown when the download of a pip
-        bootstrap script fails. The download now uses ``urllib2`` instead of ``urllib``
-        on Python 2.
-      - ansible-test - Avoid using the ``mock_use_standalone_module`` setting for
-        unit tests running on Python 3.8 or later.
-      - ansible-test - Become support for remote instance provisioning is no longer
-        tied to a fixed list of platforms.
-      - ansible-test - Blocking mode is now enforced for stdin, stdout and stderr.
-        If any of these are non-blocking then ansible-test will exit during startup
-        with an error.

-      - calls to listify_lookup_plugin_terms in core do not pass in loader/dataloader
-        anymore.
-      - collections - ``ansible-galaxy collection build`` can now utilize ``MANIFEST.in``
-        style directives from ``galaxy.yml`` instead of ``build_ignore`` effectively
-        inverting the logic from include by default, to exclude by default. (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/78422)
-      - config manager, move templating into main query function in config instead
-        of constants
-      - config manager, remove updates to configdata as it is mostly unused
-      - configuration entry INTERPRETER_PYTHON_DISTRO_MAP is now 'private' and won't
-        show up in normal configuration queries and docs, since it is not 'settable'
-        this avoids user confusion.
-      - distribution - add distribution_minor_version for Debian Distro (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/74481).
-      - documentation construction now gives more information on error.
-      - facts - add OSMC to Debian os_family mapping
-      - get_url - permit to pass to parameter ``checksum`` an URL pointing to a file
-        containing only a checksum (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/54390).

-        existance of the resource
-      - plugin loader - add ansible_name and ansible_aliases attributes to plugin
-        objects/classes.
-      - systemd is now systemd_service to better reflect the scope of the module,
-        systemd is kept as an alias for backwards compatibility.
-      - templating - removed internal template cache
-      - uri - cleanup write_file method, remove overkill safety checks and report
-        any exception, change shutilcopyfile to use module.atomic_move
-      - urls - Add support to specify SSL/TLS ciphers to use during a request (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/78633)
-      - 'validate-modules - Allow ``type: raw`` on a module return type definition
-        for values that have a dynamic type'
-      - version output now includes the path to the python executable that Ansible
-        is running under
-      - yum_repository - do not give the ``async`` parameter a default value anymore,
-        since this option is deprecated in RHEL 8. This means that ``async = 1`` won't
-        be added to repository files if omitted, but it can still be set explicitly
-        if needed.

-  Add an 'action_plugin' field for modules in runtime.yml plugin_routing.

-  This fixes module_defaults by supporting modules-as-redirected-actions
-  without redirecting module_defaults entries to the common action.
-
-  .. code: yaml

-     plugin_routing:
-       action:
-         facts:

-       tasks:
-         - ns.coll.facts:
-
-  will end up with defaults for eos_facts and eos_command
-  since both modules redirect to the same action.
-
-  To select an action plugin for a module without merging
-  module_defaults, define an action_plugin field for the resolved
-  module in the runtime.yml.
-
-  .. code: yaml

-     plugin_routing:

-           redirect: ns.coll.eos_command
-           action_plugin: ns.coll.eos
-
-  The action_plugin field can be a redirected action plugin, as
-  it is resolved normally.
-
-  Using the modified runtime.yml, the example task will only use
-  the ns.coll.eos_facts defaults.
