Hi
I will be interested as well. Having these playbooks in ansible can also
be useful
in order to integrate with infra-ansible project.
I really see that collection as a valid alternative for puppet modules,
with the advantages
that ansible can provide, but of course that moving from puppet to
ansible on infra internally
is something that cannot be done easily, and needs a wider discussion.
If we limit the scope of the ansible playbooks only to infra components,
I think that infra
namespace is the way to go, having an independent group of reviewers.

I'm interested in ansible roles for openstack-infra, but as there is
overlap in functionality
with the current openstack-infra puppet roles I'm not sure what's the
stance from the
openstack-infra core members and PTL.
I think they should go to openstack-infra, since Nodepoo/Zuul/etc are
very specific
to the OpenStack CI.
Question is if we should have a subgroup within openstack-infra
namespace for
'stuff that is not used by OpenStack CI but interesting from CI
perspective and/or
used by other downstream groups'.

The most basic use case is managing nodepool using ansible, for
the purpose of
CI. Bascially, rewrite puppet-nodepool using ansible. I won't go
into the
reasoning for that, except to say people do not want to use puppet.
Regarding os-ansible-deployment, they are only related due to both
using
ansible. I wouldn't see os-ansible-deployment using the module,
however I would
hope to learn best practices and code reviews from the team.
Where ever the module lives, I would hope people interested in ansible
development would be group somehow.
