Ansible creator, founder and CTO Michael DeHaan previously worked at Red Hat where he helped build Cobbler.

Also, Michael DeHaan stepped down and left the company early 2015.
So this could explain why his very active github activities suddenly stopped early 2015, I just presumed it was due to consciously allocating more time for management and leadership.

His github contributions rate and depth for ansible while still the CEO in y2014 has been a great inspiration for me.

FYI- A lot of Ansible employees have a Red Hat past. The lead developer James Cammarata has, and is also the current Cobbler maintainer.
This is actually my first stint at Red Hat - as the Cobbler maintainer I just kickstarted RHEL (and some VMware) boxes a lot for my day job.
