Contributors and Testers Welcome

Thank you for your interest in the Ansible PPA!

Current Status

We have several versioned and unversioned PPAs. The following is a quick summary of our most popular PPAs. The full list of PPAs can be found here: https://launchpad.net/~ansible

PPA Naming Convention

The naming convention used for the PPAs is as follows:

[testing-]ansible[-${VERSION}]

both testing- and -${VERSION} are optional.

In this case, testing refers to whether or not pre-releases are included and ${VERSION} refers to the major version. Using testing-ansible-8 as an example, only releases of ansible 8.x (including pre-releases, like 8.0.0a2) will be available.
