I understand the general principle that `a.b-c.d` is not equivalent to `a['b-c']['d]` Is it people trying to access `groups.group-a.vars` instead of `groups['group-a'].vars`? Is this a particularly widespread pattern? (You have to be pretty advanced to want to access vars from other groups, by which point hopefully you understand Jinja syntax) Will -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Development" group.
