Hi all! We’re happy to announce that Alpha 1 for 2.5.0 is now available.

Note that while the core engine is feature complete, community module freeze is next week, so new modules and features will appear in the next pre-release.

How do you get it?

Sorry about that- some docs reorgs in devel moved that right after we sent the release announcement, and the redirects aren’t in place yet. New location is [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting\_guides/porting\_guide\_2.5.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides/porting_guide_2.5.html).
