Release and Upgrade Notes

Many roles and variables have been renamed to reflect the product renaming from Tower to controller/AAP. Verify carefully your inventory variables and playbooks.

The OCP installation role has been suppressed due to the introduction of an operator. Further (community) automation for AAP on OCP is available from the GitOps catalogue.
