Hi. I have just started with Ansible and it looks pretty promising. I work at a CFEngine shop and wasn’t satisfied so I tried fabric for a while, but it’s disappointing in many ways, especially that the maintainer rejected a patch for native openssh connections.

I’m hoping some of the modules I need are already written - the link at [http://ansible.cc/docs/moduledev.html](http://ansible.cc/docs/moduledev.html) to “Ansible Resources” sounds like what I want, but it’s broken.

Is there a directory of 3rd party (unmerged) modules?

Thanks,  
Devin
