Hello all,
As some of you may have noticed, Ansible-2.8.0-alpha1 has been
delayed. It was scheduled for last week but we have one important
feature that we're still working on. To give it a chance to be
finished up, we've slipped Alpha by two weeks (now due out on
Thursday, next week) and slipped final by one week. I'll be pushing a
documentation PR shortly to update this page:
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/roadmap/ROADMAP_2_8.html
The new schedule there will be:
2019-03-28 Alpha 1 Core freeze
2019-04-04 Beta 1 Feature freeze
2019-04-18 Release Candidate 1
2019-04-25 Release Candidate 2 (if needed)
2019-04-02 Release Candidate 3 (if needed)
2019-05-02-09 Release

Hi Toshio,
I haven’t see any announcement, but I’ve just noticed that 2.8 ROADMAP has been updated:
2019-04-04 Alpha 1 Core freeze No new features to support:core code. Includes no new options to existing Core modules
2019-04-11 Beta 1 Feature freeze No new functionality (including modules/plugins) to any code
2019-04-25 Release Candidate 1
2019-05-02 Release Candidate 2 (if needed)
2019-05-09 Release Candidate 3 (if needed)
2019-05-16 Release
So are above dates confirmed?
Thanks
Martin
I'm crossing my fingers but it looks like Alpha1 is clear to be
released today. We are presently working to fix some issues that are
being exposed with newer platform images for our CI. We do not think
that these will be blockers for the alpha release but would like to
get them applied so that we can test with the newer images. I'll be
making a final decision in a few hours about whether to release alpha1
without these changes and target them for beta1 instead.
