Meeting summary
---------------
* Agenda https://github.com/ansible/community/labels/network  (gundalow,
  16:03:32)
* Loop  (gundalow, 16:06:58)
  * Proposal for extending `loop_control` will be created. This will be
    implemented in Ansible 2.6 (at the earliest)  (gundalow, 16:07:36)
  * Aggregate will not change for 2.5  (gundalow, 16:07:54)
  * Current thoughts are that a new option under ths `loop_control`
    keyword will be created, which will tell Ansible if that loop should
    be "optimised" or not  (gundalow, 16:08:41)

* Declaritive Intent  (gundalow, 16:11:28)
  * No changes will be done in 2.5, we may add some of the missing
    platform specific modules under the `net_` (platform agnostic)
    versions, which will include DI, though again, we are not going to
    change anything here  (gundalow, 16:12:19)

* Network Documentation  (gundalow, 16:13:26)
  * Following on from Contributor Summit discussion in San Francisco we
    agreed that some getting started documentation was needed
    (gundalow, 16:14:38)

* Open Floor  (gundalow, 16:36:53)
  * there are various PRs that need reviewing on
    https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/247 (I don't see any
    specific questions) The core team will go though those offline
    (gundalow, 16:37:28)
  * ACTION: gundalow will review the other PRs on
    https://github.com/ansible/community/issues/247 and update agenda as

  * "roadmap" Networ items for Ansible 2.5 can be found on
    https://github.com/ansible/ansible/projects/10  (gundalow, 16:39:18)
  * This was done after feedback from Contributors Summit SF to give you
    all better visibility  (gundalow, 16:40:21)
  * if you think something that SHOULD be fixed in 2.5.0 isn't on either
    of those lists please let us know in this channel (#ansible-network)
