I'm not at all a fan of Ansible but I must have missed something here - has IBM somehow bought/taken over Ansible?

  Red Hat owns commercial side of Ansible and Red Hat was acquired by IBM

  RedHat owns Ansible and IBM owns RedHat.

  IBM acquired RedHat who made Ansible. I believe that’s what the parent comment is alluding to.

  IBM -> RedHat -> Ansible (https://docs.ansible.com/platform.html https://docs.ansible.com/platform.html) I think the new ansible docs are opaque, and the new "everything is an ansible collection" scheme makes troubleshooting any issues reported by users hundreds of times harder than "the old days" I keep this (https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob/8.1.0/8/ansible-8.1.0.yaml https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob...) bookmarked because it's the only way to match up what "ansible 8.1.0" (https://pypi.org/project/ansible/8.1.0/ https://pypi.org/project/ansible/8.1.0/) even means since it for damn sure not any of this: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/releases https://github.com/ansible/ansible/releases (they used to have a 'release' pinned on that releases tab saying "these are not the droids you are looking for"). I believe I tried asking for them to update the completely erroneous pypi "source code" link to point to that repo and ... well, one can see how well that turned out

    Has something happened to the ansible-doc command? This has behaved the same for me for years, but I use distribution packages so may lag behind a bit.
