This is basically the proposal of https://forum.ansible.com/t/5738/2.

I was not able to find a rule in the requirements that if content is moved out from collections in Ansible, that the resulting collection also has to be part of Ansible. Since the original discussions are more than two years old (ansible-community/community-topics#167), I'm missing the context... If someone remembers (or finds where this is mentioned in the requirements or elsewhere in the docs), please mention it here :)

For the community "catch all" collections, we have slightly different rules. We allow to move content out of community.general and community.network to other collections outside of Ansible under the following conditions:

1. The new collection is appropriately licensed and does not require a CLA to contribute.

Instead of "does not require a CLA to contribute," can we say "follows the Contributor License Agreements policy" and make that a link to the the "Contributor License Agreements" section? There's more detail there about what constitutes a CLA and also that we allow the DCO.

I did some grammar policing, but this looks good to me, and I agree with the policy here. Thanks!
