Briefs on Ansible, Issue 53
February 9, 2015
Newsletter Reboot
Welcome to the reboot of the newsletter!
The newsletter was on hiatus for a few months. I took on some contract work and got too busy to keep up with it for awhile. I revamped the newsletter so that it was no longer weekly. Instead it would be every 2 or 3 weeks, which made it less time-consuming and kept the content more relevant.
Briefs on Ansible
To better express the unofficial and non-weekly nature of the newsletter, I rebranded it as Briefs on Ansible.


For non-native English speakers, the word "briefs" can mean a few things. It can be a summary of information, like this newsletter, but it can also be a type of men's underwear. So, that's the joke.
