Out of curiosity: why not add it to Ansible 9 as well?

[mariolenz]

Maybe I got this wrong, but I thought Ansible 9 is kind of an LTS release where we don't add new collections. We didn't add ieisystem.inmanage there, either: #431

And your PR to add kubevirt.core is also about 10 and 11, not 9: #419

I think vmware.vmware should work in Ansible 9 because they claim to work with ansible-core >= 2.15.0. But if we add it to 9, we should also talk about adding ieisystem.inmanage and kubevirt.core, too.

I'm not against adding this collection to the Ansible Community Package 9, I just thought we don't want to do this 🤷

Correct me I've I'm wrong. But, as I've said, we also should have another look at ieisystem.inmanage and kubevirt.core.

It's not really LTS, since it accepts new features in collections. So why not also add new collections?

For ieisystem.inmanage that was likely an oversight, and we should fix that.

For kubevirt.core that was intentional, since it depends on kubernetes.core >= 3.1.0, while Ansible 9 contains kubernetes.core 2.x.y. So it's not possible to add it to Ansible 9. (See also https://forum.ansible.com/t/5084/8 :) )
