Ansible 13 roadmap

[mariolenz]

This is based on the Ansible 12 roadmap, but updated according to #2997. There are two major differences to the Ansible 12 roadmap:

1. I've dropped the planned major changes section, because I think it's not really useful. If you think we should keep it, please join this discussion.
2. I've changed links to docs.ansible.com to ansible.readthedocs.io. I thought it might be a good idea because of this announcement.

Thanks for doing this!

[mariolenz]

Thanks for reviewing and your suggestions @felixfontein!

@mariolenz We might need to double check with @oraNod , but I think the move of docs doesn't require to change URLs, and actually it might be counter-productive.

The docs.ansible.com subdomain will point to ansible.readthedocs.io through a CNAME probably (or something) for resolution, but the URL will stay docs.ansible.com, and actually, the readthedocs one is going away:

From the announcement in the forum

You do not need to update bookmarks or links to documentation in collection READMEs or other places where you might point to docs.ansible.com.

After the migration, the ansible.readthedocs.io subdomain will change to docs.ansible.com and the landing pages will be at the root level with each project, including core and the package, added as a subproject. After the change, you will have the following structure:

Thanks for pinging me here @leogallego I think this got lost in the avalanche of stuff when I returned from PTO. You're correct that there is no need to change subdomains or take any action. I also responded with some more details in a separate thread here: ansible-community/antsibull-build#675

Apologies if this read the docs migration is causing some confusion or extra churn!

[mariolenz]

Actually I would link directly to https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/steering/community_steering_committee.html#creating-community-topic here using the RST label

Good point @felixfontein! Should we do the same with the ansible-core 2.20 Roadmap? It's already linked like this under Release schedule.

It looks like we already had this mismatch in the Ansible 12 roadmap: First link to a URL, then to a RST label. But I guess it makes more sense like this.

[felixfontein]

Links look good to me!

[mariolenz]

@leogallego @oraNod FYI The links to ansible.readthedocs.io have been replaced with using RST labels. I've also reverted the last one (in the header) back to docs.ansible.com here again.

Does this look OK to you?
