5 tips for choosing an Ansible collection that's right for you
The Ansible collection’s documentation should contain at least a quickstart tutorial with installation instructions. This part of the documentation aims to have users up and running in a matter of minutes. For example, the Sensu Go Ansible collection has a dedicated quickstart guide, while the Sops Ansible collection includes this information in its README file.

The Bullhorn #87 (Ansible Newsletter) - Happy new year!!
community.general 6.2.0 (changelog) has been released. Please note that the Rackspace modules might get deprecated in version 7.0.0 and removed in version 9.0.0, since the Python library they are based on (pyrax) has been deprecated for a long time. If you are interested in maintaining and improving (potentially partially rewriting?) the modules to avoid removal, please look at the GitHub issue discussing this.
