hey folks, as [[DOCS] Update Collection metadata docs by Andersson007 · Pull Request #635 · ansible/ansible-builder · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-builder/pull/635) has been recently merged and all related stuff looks consistent across all the places, I’ve updated the [PR](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-documentation/pull/871) by adding a reference to the updated builders metadata guide. It’s now `SHOULD` and all the files are suggested living under `meta/`. So now it should look good to everyone 😂

If no objections, I’ll open a vote on merging [[Needs SC vote] collection\_requirements: add requirements.txt and bindep.txt by Andersson007 · Pull Request #871 · ansible/ansible-documentation · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-documentation/pull/871) here within a few days (hope even tomorrow). Thanks!
