news-for-maintainers VS community.postgresql

If you are using GHA to run tests on collections, you might have noticed strange failures when using ansible-test's --docker option when using ubuntu-latest. Read more about this and how to fix this in this issue.

In ansible/ansible, the stable-2.13 branch has been created (more infos), and the version of the devel branch has been bumped to 2.14.0.dev0 (more infos).

If you want to discuss this, we welcome feedback in ansible-collections/news-for-maintainers/discussions/4.

In accordance with the Community decision, we have created the news-for-maintainers repository for announcements of changes impacting collection maintainers (see the examples) instead of Issue 45 that has just been closed. To keep yourself well-informed and, therefore, things in your collection working, please subscribe to the repository by using the Watch button in the upper right corner on the repository's home page. If you do not want to get notifications about related discussions, please subscribe only to Issues. Please read the brief guidelines on how the repository should be used. Please avoid unnecessary discussions in issues, use the Discussions feature. Every comment posted will notify a lot of folks!

The community.postgresql collection released a new version: 3.2.0.

We are happy to announce that the community.mysql collection has found a new maintainer: Felix Hamme (betanummeric on GitHub/Matrix)! He's also already a maintainer of the community.postgresql collection and has a great history of contributions in both. Thanks, Felix, and welcome to the crew!:)

The community.postgresql collection has released two new version: 1.7.9 and 2.4.1. They revert the breaking change accidentally introduced in the previous version (which was intended for a later major release).

The community.postgresql collection version 2.3.1 has been released (changelog). Thanks to vonschultz and hunleyd!

The community.postgresql team has released 1.7.6 as a bugfix release.

We are also happy to announce a new maintainer of the community.postgresql collection - Felix Hamme (betanummeric on GitHub)! Our congratulations, Felix, and thank you for your great contribution in many collections and desire to help!

The community.postgresql maintainers need your feedback! A proposal for formalizing the supported PG versions has been filed here and needs your input. If adopted, the collection will issue major releases yearly and each major release will officially support the five major version of PG supported at that time. We think this will ultimately improve the collection and improve the end user's experience but we need your input. We look forward to hearing from everyone!

Recently, we opened https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.postgresql/issues/276 to discuss formalizing the supported PostgreSQL versions in the community.postgresql collection. This is a big change for the collection and we want to ensure the proposal makes sense for the collection's users. If you use the collection, please review the proposal and add your thumbs up/down, comment, etc. Thanks!

The community.postgresql collection has released 1.7.3 and 2.1.4 to fully deprecate Ansible 2.9/2.10. Thanks to our newest contributor jchancojr and everyone else involved!
