Inclusion candidates for Ansible 5

[tadeboro]

Summary

This issue contains high-level information about the inclusion process of each candidate. Feel free to edit as things progress.

2021-10-12
Last day for new collections to be submitted for inclusion in Ansible-5. Collections MUST be reviewed and approved before being included. There is no guarantee that we will review every collection. The earlier your collection is submitted, the more likely it will be that your collection will be reviewed and the necessary feedback can be addressed in time for inclusion.

[felixfontein]

We voted on the inclusion of community.ciscosmb and community.dns in today's meeting (https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/ansible-community/2021-09-15/ansible_community_meeting.2021-09-15-18.00.html) and accepted both for inclusion in Ansible 5.

Just a minor status update before today's meeting. Inclusion candidates that have at least two positive reviews are:

1. infoblox.nios_modules
2. netapp.storagegrid
3. cloud.common

I think we can vote about their inclusion today.

I also went over all of the candidates and updated their statuses. Consult the summary at the top of the issue for more details.

Today we voted on cisco.ise and approved it for inclusion. Unfortunately there was no other collection to vote on, since we were either missing reviews, or there were open issues that need to be addressed by the maintainers.

Since we can incorporate collections "once they are done", I don't think we need this tracking issue anymore. @tadeboro thanks for your work on this!
