    (felixfontein, 19:04:42)

* Follow Up  (gotmax[m], 19:06:42)
  * Update on private plugins in collections: core prefers metadata
    instead of filename semantics, I created a new PR for that (ref:
    https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/154,
    https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/79370)  (felixfontein,
    19:07:35)

* Open Floor  (gotmax[m], 19:23:11)

* Future of c.g and c.n and Process for orphaning/deprecating modules in
  community.general and community.network   (gotmax[m], 19:31:07)
  * LINK:
    https://github.com/ansible-community/community-topics/issues/20
    (gotmax[m], 19:31:08)
  * There is some agreement about identifying and removing
    dead/unmaintained/unsed plugins in community.general and
    community.network.  (gotmax[m], 20:02:21)
  * Ideas include: adding metadata about the maintenance state of
    plugins, announcing orphaned plugins in the changelog/bullhorn,
    maybe some sort of optional survey/script/callback plugin to
    collect data, warnings after time has at once, engaging the devtools
    team about data from ansible-lint or the vscode plugin  (gotmax[m],
    20:03:02)

Meeting ended at 20:04:24 UTC.
