To support the continued growth of Ansible we are expanding Ansible Galaxy
to include new functionality and tooling. A goal of this expansion is to
provide a minimum viable level of quality checks for content on Ansible
Galaxy. One of the first steps we are taking is adopting molecule and
ansible-lint as official Red Hat Ansible projects.

ansible-lint and molecule are great tools. They've been built and tested by
the community that we see as essential parts of enhancing development of
Ansible automation. By adopting these tools, Red Hat intends to invest
resources working with the community to make them even better. We are very
excited to integrate ansible-lint and molecule with the rest of the Ansible
projects.

We would like to thank Cisco, specifically John Dewey, for their work on
molecule. Cisco's willingness to transfer this project over to the Red Hat
Ansible team lends great credence to their contributions to the open source
ecosystem. We also want to thank Will Thames, the maintainer of
ansible-lint, for his contributions developing a tool that has done so much
for Playbook authors. We look forward to working with the communities that
have made these projects what they are. We want to share further
improvements with the broader Ansible community as well.

So what happens now? The repos will be migrated to the Ansible organization
on GitHub. The transition and roadmap will be iterated on gradually.
Ideally, the community will help guide our decision making as we go forward.

If you’re not familiar with these projects I encourage you to become more
familiar with them and how they can make automating with Ansible even more
simple and frictionless.
