// adding [networking-ansible] tag in case it can attract attention of the team
Because we have not heard any objections for a while, I've proposed deprecation of networking-ansible support in puppet-neutron[1] and TripleO[2].

If anybody has concerns about this, please let us know in the above reviews.
Thank you, Takashi

Hello
Currently puppet-neutron supports deploying networking-ansible[1].
However I noticed the project looks unmaintained.
- No release was made since stable/victoria
- Its job template has not been updated still points
openstack-python3-wallaby-jobs (likely because of no release activity)
- setup.cfg still indicates support for Python 2 while it does not
support 3.6/7/9
Although the repo got a few patches merged 6 months ago, I've not seen any interest in maintaining the repository.
Based on the above observations, I'd propose deprecating the support in Zed and removing it in the post-Zed release. TripleO also supports networking-ansible but that will be also deprecated and removed because the dependent implementation will be removed. (That's why I added the tripleo tag)
If you have any concerns then please let me know. If we don't hear any concerns in a few weeks then I'll propose the deprecation.
I'm adding the [neutron] tag in case anybody in the team is interested in fixing the maintenance status. IIUC networking-ansible is not part of the stadium but I'm not aware of any good alternatives...
