Re: [ansible-devel] Is changing the default setting of TRANSFORM_INVALID_GROUP_CHARS a good idea?

I have to agree with Jörg as most of Ansible's customers are using products like Slack these days to participate on multiple workspaces already. But even if Ansible discussions were hosted there, there is the reality that most Ansible customers work the same long hours that Ansible employees

[ansible-devel] Re: Is changing the default setting of TRANSFORM_INVALID_GROUP_CHARS a good idea?

[ansible-devel] Re: Ansible-Vault filter, module extensions
