I think it’s a good idea @oranod. - It would provide more transparency into the partner “realm” (I like how you put it @felixfontein) which was [feedback we received during the CfgMgmtCamp Contributor Summit](https://forum.ansible.com/t/cfgmgmtcamp-2026-community-and-contributor-summit/45347#p-137897-talk-notes-6). - We could share updates for partners and have that be visible to the community too. - IMHO it makes sense to have a “Top Level” category because it would provide more flexibility for the future (if needed). - Having partners look at the forum would give them more visibility to see active conversations in [Project Discussions - Ansible](https://forum.ansible.com/c/project/7) and [Collection Development - Ansible](https://forum.ansible.com/c/project/collection-development/27). They could participate if they wanted, provide ideas, feedback and even contribute back to tooling. Partners have engineers who are collection maintainers too and they use the same tooling as the community. It just makes sense in my mind. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.ansible.com/t/proposing-a-new-red-hat-partners-category-for-the-ansible-forum/45366)._
