Hey I've found notices in Elastic's git repos inside the Ansible roles that I currently use for rolling out Elasticsearch in our different environments saying:

> This Ansible role is being deprecated and will not be updated to support {{ product\_goes\_here }} 8.0.0 and the following versions.

Will there be a new ansible playbook or installer for those of us that use this in combination with other roles to roll out upgrades/configuration changes etc.?

see below:
