Let’s keep moving.  
I suggest starting polls for the Steering committee and the Community containing the following questions (not mutually exclusive):

**Question 1** : Stop including new collections and deprecate the package. Users will only be able to install ansible-core + selected collections manually: Yes/No

**Question 2** : Stop including new collections, trim down the package to ansible-core + a few collections like ansible.posix, ansible.utils, ansible.windows, community.core, etc. that will be determined later in a dedicated topic: Yes/No

**Question 3** : No changes. I’m happy with the package as it is now. Yes/No

**Question 4** : Your option here or suggest changes to the above questions.
