Hi All, I agree and support this proposal.

I assume this property would be required (?) and therefore we should decide what the default value (false) would indicate. I suggest that the default value should be the likely majority playbook class/category. So if most playbooks will be templates then is_executable would be a good name and default to false. If most playbooks would be executable then is_template might be better to name the property and that way the default value of false would work nicely.

Some of the important points: The difference between an executable playbook and a playbook template is mostly subjective. There are suggestions to the text to help clarify this. There is no difference between an executable playbook and a playbook template in terms of their properties The term paybook class is confusing, since it is specified using the type property of a playbook. A suggested proposal is to remove the concept of playbook classes, and replace it by a new Boolean property, maybe called is_executable , to differentiate between executable playbooks and playbook templates.
