## General news updates 🔈

### Ansible Documentation Migration

[Oranod](https://matrix.to/#/@orandon:ansible.im) contributed

> A new look and feel is coming for Ansible community docs.
> 
> The Ansible community team at Red Hat announced our plans to migrate the `docs.ansible.com` subdomain to Read The Docs (RTD) hosting in a [forum post](https://forum.ansible.com/t/we-re-moving-to-read-the-docs/43519).
> 
> We’re gearing up to make the switch to Read The Docs but decided to roll out the new docsite landing pages first. We’ve [revamped the docsite](https://github.com/ansible-community/community-website/pull/475) using the design of the community website with the content journey based approach to the docsite.
> 
> You can now visit [ansible.readthedocs.io](https://ansible.readthedocs.io/) to see what `docs.ansible.com` is going to look like after we point the subdomain to Read The Docs hosting. So please take a look and try it out. If you spot any issues or have ideas on how to improve, please open an issue in the [ansible-docsite](https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-docsite) repo, in the forum, or in the [Ansible Docs](https://matrix.to/#/#docs:ansible.com) channel on Matrix. Cheers!

### community.digitalocean Collection Status

[mariolenz](https://matrix.to/#/@mariolenz:matrix.org) said

> It looks like the [community.digitalocean](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.digitalocean) collection is effectively unmaintained. According to the current [Ansible Community Package Collections Removal Process](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/community/collection_contributors/collection_package_removal.html#identifying-and-removing-an-unmaintained-collection-that-has-not-been-deprecated-by-its-maintainers), we consider removing it in a future version of the Ansible Community Package. Please see [Unmaintained collection: community.digitalocean](https://forum.ansible.com/t/44602) for more information or to announce that you’re interested in taking over the maintenance of (a fork of) `community.digitalocean`.
> 
> At least one month after this announcement appears here and in the [collection’s issue tracker](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.digitalocean/issues/389), the Ansible Community Steering Committee will vote on whether this collection is considered unmaintained and will be removed, or whether it will be kept. If it will be removed, this will happen earliest in Ansible Community Package 14. Please note that you can still manually install the collection with `ansible-galaxy collection install community.digitalocean` even when it has been removed from Ansible Community Package.
