Hi all,

We’re happy to announce that the Ansible 7.0.0a2 package has been released!

Ansible 7.0.0a2 will include ansible-core 2.14.0rc1 as well as a curated set of  
Ansible collections to provide a vast number of modules and plugins.

This is a major version update from Ansible 6.x which included  
ansible-core 2.13 and there may be backwards incompatibilities in the  
core playbook language.

How to get it
