Linux System Roles are built-in to Fedora - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/linux-system-roles - linux-system-roles.noarch.rpm - the roles are packaged as individual legacy roles, and as the fedora.linux_system_roles collection.
Perhaps a question from a poor (Ansible-)uninitiated: What do you mean by "legacy" in this context?
There is a good bit of overlap between https://robertdebock.nl/ansible.html and https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/namespaces/4114/ - Robert has many, many more roles, and probably has better support for ubuntu/debian (if you want playbooks that span multiple platforms).
We want to use Ansible as a means to establish specifically „Supported Fedora Server Edition Services". Therefore, support for Debian/Ubuntu etc. is not necessarily important.
Much more important is a very good support of the "Fedora way" of organizing the distribution and configuration. In particular, this means good coordination with the pre-configuration that our packers deliver with the packages.
I would encourage you to use linux-system-roles, and if there are gaps in support, let's work to add those to linux-system-roles
Building our work on something we already distribute in Fedora seems attractive to me, if only to increase Fedora's internal consistency.
The question is rather what we are missing as a consequence.
