Communicating

Code of Conduct

Please read and understand the Community Code of Conduct.

Mailing list information

Ansible has several mailing lists. Your first post to the mailing list will be moderated (to reduce spam), so please allow up to a day or so for your first post to appear.

To subscribe to a group from a non-Google account, you can send an email to the subscription address requesting the subscription. For example: ansible-devel+subscribe@googlegroups.com

IRC channels

Ansible has several IRC channels on Freenode.

Our IRC channels may require you to register your nickname. If you receive an error when you connect, see Freenode’s Nickname Registration guide for instructions.

To find all ansible specific channels on a freenode network, use the following command in your IRC client:

/msg alis LIST #ansible* -min 5

as described in freenode docs.

General channels

  • #ansible - For general use questions and support.
  • #ansible-devel - For discussions on developer topics and code related to features or bugs.
  • #ansible-meeting - For public community meetings. We will generally announce these on one or more of the above mailing lists. See the meeting schedule and agenda page

Working groups

Many of our community Working Groups meet on Freenode IRC channels. If you want to get involved in a working group, join the channel where it meets or comment on the agenda.

Ansible Tower support questions

Red Hat Ansible Tower is a UI, Server, and REST endpoint for Ansible. The Red Hat Ansible Automation subscription contains support for Ansible, Ansible Tower, Ansible Automation for Networking, and more.

If you have a question about Ansible Tower, visit Red Hat support rather than using the IRC channel or the general project mailing list.
