Would you have a link describing it? Looking for DEP returns something in
Windows, looking further I find something in Debian which I suspect is what you
are referring to, but it's not really clear.
As far as being too late? Folks actually want to be porting and writing
tests. So the goal is to unblock those folks. From the current
evaluations, it looks like folks want to write tests in a standard
Ansible form.
If DEP 8, or RPM packaging, or another solution somehow edges out that
choice, it will need to be able invoke the ported/written tests as they
without significant change.
So all that to say. I'm not against an alternative solution, however I
don't thinks folks will wait for long for it.
The first step is to document it completely, work on the examples and so
on. Are you up for that? To start, copy a page like this to your own
wiki page, and fill everything in, including examples, with real working
code:
