Hi everyone,

I have a couple comments/questions about this change.

How will this effect EPEL? Is the plan to keep Ansible 2.9 there for
now?

Could we also consider making Ansible a modular package on both Fedora
and EPEL? Then, it would be possible to install any of the currently
supported versions of the Ansible core/engine (ansible 2.9, ansible-
base 2.10, and ansible-core 2.11).

Will the new `ansible` package have virtual provides for the
collections it provides? While there is not a good reason to, it will
still be possible to install both the new `ansible` package and any of
the ansible-collection-* packages, right?

Also, I would be happy to help with Ansible packaging in Fedora;
however, I am not yet part of the packager group and still need a
sponsor.

Thanks,
Maxwell
