I would be more than happy to hand over ansible rebuilds to Config
Management SIG.
I'm rebuilding ansible in Virt SIG just because there wasn't any other SIG
keeping the pace with ansible releases.
While creating repos, please consider having an ansible-2 repo having
always latest ansible 2 along with ansible-2.5, ansible-2.6 and so on.
In oVirt we'd like to consume latest ansible 2 always.
