What's the schedule for new Ansible releases after 7.7.0 ?

fixes will come for Ansible 7.X.X. From now on we will only have 8.X.X
releases. The next scheduled release is Ansible 8.1.0 on 22nd June 2023.

* Please follow the announcement of the recent release of 2.14.7

Porting Help
------------

A unified porting guide for collections that have opted-in is available here:
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/porting_guides/porting_guide_7.html

Getting collection updates from Ansible 7 with older releases of ansible-core
--------------------------------------

Ansible 7 includes ansible-core 2.14.x. Based on your requirements, you can get collection updates as they ship in the Ansible "batteries included" package while continuing to use older versions of ansible-core.

An ansible-galaxy requirements file based on the collections from
Ansible 7 has been made available for this use case:
https://github.com/ansible-community/ansible-build-data/blob/main/7/galaxy-requirements.yaml

After you download the requirements file, the collections can be installed by running this command:

"ansible-galaxy collection install -r galaxy-requirements.yaml"

On behalf of the Ansible community, thank you and happy automating!

Cheers
Ansible Community Team
