So the question comes up, will it be live at that channel there? Or are there other links for a YouTube Live stream? ---

Hi everyone, I wanted to share part of the agenda for my session during Contributor Summit on Weds morning. During the session I want to provide the community with an update and overview on the Community and Partner Engineering team at Red Hat. We were planning to do this at last year’s Contributor Summit but unfortunately ran a bit short on time after the great discussions. After that portion, my team and I would like to have a discussion with everyone in the room and online about our goals for 2026. When we get back from Ghent our plan is to collaboratively define our roadmap for the year ahead. It’s important that we hear from the community and clearly understand issues and pain points that we can add to our roadmap and prioritize against other work. We really want to use this session as an opportunity to hear from contributors and get your suggestions and feedback. With this in mind, we’re inviting everyone to share their thoughts and provide direct input to the work that the community team will undertake in 2026. To facilitate this discussion we’ve prepared some slides and talking points around the following high-level goals: - Focus on content quality - Improve content discovery and user adoption - Reduce maintainer burden - Act as open source champions If you are planning to attend Contributor Summit, whether in-person or online, we ask that you come prepared to discuss these goals and provide us with suggestions on specific pieces of work that align with each goal. We’re hoping for a really fruitful discussion (which should lead into the follow on session from @felixfontein and @nitzmahone quite nicely). Again, our goal here is to identify and prioritize work that will benefit the community and help us empower Ansible contributors. To do this, we really need to hear from you. So please start giving our high-level goals some thought and come prepared to tell us what YOU want to see us work on in the year ahead. We’ll also be posting to the forum as we define our roadmap to give visibility and hold ourselves accountable to the Ansible community. Thanks everyone! Looking forward to seeing you all in Ghent soon!! 🧇 🧇 ---

I converted my notes to forum posts (as it was suggested at the Contributor’s Summit) so they are easier to comment and discuss. I also prepended each with information about what happened (in/since the discussion), if applicable. Here is a summary post with links to all the individual posts: [CfgMgmtCamp 2026 discussion (0/12): Problems in the Ansible world and how to improve on them](https://forum.ansible.com/t/45300) ---

I wanted to view the talk “[Building CI/CD Pipelines for your Ansible code :: CfgMgmtCamp 2026 Ghent :: pretalx](https://cfp.cfgmgmtcamp.org/ghent2026/talk/W3GX3U/)” that took place in B.1.017 on tuesday at 4pm, but it’s not in the live feed. Was that recording lost ? ---

@nbttmbrg Unfortunately that session was not recorded due to technical issues in the room with the projector and recording equipment at the time. You can take a look at the [HackMD notes](https://hackmd.io/@ansible-community/r131A94PZx) for that session. ---

> [@nbttmbrg](#): > > Would it be possible to maybe get in touch with Ottavia Balducci to get the slides she used during the presentation ? I’ve contacted all the speakers from the Ansible Tracks, folks are uploading the slides. [HackMD notes](https://hackmd.io/@ansible-community/r131A94PZx) shows where we are up to in collecting links (note the YouTube videos are still private while I sort links). We will update this Forum Thread once that’s completed. ---

I already noticed Ottavia’s slides are here: [https://cfp.cfgmgmtcamp.org/media/ghent2026/submissions/W3GX3U/resources/slides\_ZUN5sw6.pdf](https://cfp.cfgmgmtcamp.org/media/ghent2026/submissions/W3GX3U/resources/slides_ZUN5sw6.pdf) I attended her talk and remember she had some hardware problem that meant she couldn’t get recorded, which is unfortunate because it was a good one. ---
