I have [expressed my views before](https://forum.ansible.com/t/future-of-the-ansible-community-package/4902) about this working model for the ACP (or [whatever we decide to call it](https://forum.ansible.com/t/how-should-we-refer-to-the-ansible-community-package-was-ansible-15-roadmap/46107/4)). I think we should definitely stop including, and following these steps outlined by @Andersson007 in the previous message.

Although, not sure what:

> [@Andersson007](#):
>
> 1. Next topic (if trimming down in topic 3 is supported): we’ll discuss community.general collection split, vote.

is doing there. We might as well go into that discussion, sure, but IMHO it does not belong to this topic, which is about the ACP.
