General news updates 
Documentation search change
samccann shared
We’ve updated the docs search engine to use Opensearch instead of a proprietary search engine that caused problems. See Switching search on docs to OpenSearch - #4 by samccann for details.
codeberg.org - ansible-community org
dmsimard contributed
More than 6 years ago already, I created the ansible-community organization on GitHub as a home for local meetups to put their repositories in.
Over the years it has grown to 117 repositories, highlighting the need for a neutral, general purpose place to contribute on Ansible projects together.
I’ve now created the ansible-community organization on codeberg.org to do exactly the same: https://codeberg.org/ansible-community
I’m not looking to justify my personal motives for this but know that it is not meant to compete with Community managed Ansible repositories · GitHub and does not intend to spur a migration from GitHub either.
It is meant to be a neutral, general purpose place to contribute on Ansible projects together outside of GitHub because the Ansible community exists outside of GitHub.I could say many great things about Codeberg but I will limit myself to say the following:
- I believe in their mission as a non-profit to provide community-led code hosting for FOSS projects.
- Their work in getting Forgejo (a fork of Gitea) off the ground has been fantastic.
- It just works.
- They will have a booth at FOSDEM if you would like to visit and talk to them !
If you have any questions, would like to set up a repository there or would like to participate in some fashion, feel free to reach out to me on Matrix (dmsimard:matrix.org) or email: opensource@rfc2549.ca.
