Hi all, we’re happy to announce that RC2 for 2.1.2 is now available for testing. This release candidate also adds the following fixes for bugs: - Fixed a bug in which INI files incorrectly treated a hosts range as a section header (#15331) - Fixed a bug in which the max\_fail\_percentage calculation erroneously caused a series of plays to stop executing (#15954) - Fixed a bug in fetch actions which were not idempotent when the target file was a symlink (#17255) - Fixed a bug in which the task names were not properly templated (#16295) - Fixed a bug causing “squashed” loops (ie. yum, apt) to incorrectly report results (ansible-modules-core#4214) - Fixed several bugs related to includes: - when including statically, make sure that all parents were also included statically (issue #16990) - properly resolve nested static include paths - print a message when a file is statically included - Fixed a bug in which module params expected to be float types were not converted from integers (only strings) (#17325) How do you get it? ---

Hi nusenu, I’ll take a look at that again as we will be doing a RC3 for 2.1.2. ---

Any chance the road map that was promised in the 2.1 release announcement will be made available soon? We are trying to upgrade our playbooks from 1.9.4 to 2.1.2 and I’d hate to see 2.2 come out soon afterwords and require yet another migration effort.

Hi John, Our roadmaps have been posted here since 2.1: [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/ROADMAP.rst](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/ROADMAP.rst) Was there something else to which you were referring? ---

I didn’t see that, sorry. Since it is now September and there isn’t any 2.2rc, I assume that schedule has slipped. I’m going to proceed on the assumption that 2.1.2-final is much more immanent and integrate that at $WORK now. Thanks John
