16:00:40 <Qalthos> #topic Core Updates
16:02:34 <Qalthos> #info We're working on putting together the roadmap for the first half of 2022 soon, look for that to get finalized by the end of the month
16:03:47 <Qalthos> #info The first new resource module this year will be hostname
16:04:10 <Qalthos> Should be nice to have one so straightforward for a change
16:05:53 <Qalthos> #info Most of the filter plugins (ipaddr, etc.) in ansible.netcommon are getting split apart and moved to ansible.utils, so that others can use them without having to depend on netcommon
16:07:33 <Qalthos> #info This should be a pretty transparent move, and a redirect from netcommon to utils will be maintained for the usual 2+ years deprecation period
16:07:38 <Qalthos> so update your playbooks before July 2024
16:10:33 <Qalthos> #info This month's release of the platform collections (eos, vyos, etc.) will be a major release and raise the minimum netcommon version to 2.5.0, to take advantage of some changes in netcommon
16:11:21 <Qalthos> #info There may be other breaking changes, consult the changelog when they are released
16:12:05 <Qalthos> I think that's about it for this week
16:12:09 <Qalthos> #topic Open Floor
16:12:56 <Qalthos> If anyone else has something they want to discuss this week, let me know
