Greetings!
We are super excited to announce our 5th Ansible Contributor Summit! And even more excited to see what folks want to accomplish or discuss during the Contributor Summit. (That’s right: there’s a call to action a few lines down, so keep reading!)
This will be our first time holding the Contributor Summit over two days – the day before AnsibleFest, and the day following AnsibleFest.
AnsibleFest San Francisco (http://www.ansible.com/ansiblefest) will be on Thursday, September 7th. The Contributor Summit will begin on Wednesday, September 6th, from 9:30am to 4pm, and will continue again on Friday, September 8th, from 9:30am to 4pm (times subject to slight changes).
The Contributor Summit is a (multi) day-long working session with the core team and key contributors to discuss important issues affecting the Ansible community. You can participate in person or online. For those that can join us in person, a dinner is also held in the evening of the first day.
We’re still working on the agenda, and the agenda is largely driven by community suggestions, so please add your suggestions for topics to the etherpad:
https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/ansible-summit-september-2017
We will send out a finalized agenda in a couple of weeks.
Admission to the contributor meeting is free, and also entitles you to a substantial discount to AnsibleFest the following day. We also have a limited number of free passes and potential for travel sponsorship; please send a note to Robyn (robyn@ansible.com) or Greg (greg@ansible.com) if interested.
We realize that not everybody can attend in person, which is why we’ll again be arranging a video conference and a meeting time on IRC in #ansible-meeting to encourage remote participation. This has worked very well at previous Contributor Summits. We’ll be sending out an email with the information for remote participation about a week before the event.
If you would like to attend the Ansible Contributor Summit in person, please register using the following link:

Within a week after signing up you’ll receive an email with discount code for AnsibleFest San Francisco.
Thanks for all of your contributions to Ansible, and we hope to see you in San Francisco! And if you have any questions at all, please let us know.
Cheers,
- Robyn and Greg (aka: Community Robyn and Community Batman)
