System Role for managing a Password Policy

[Jörg Kastning]

Hello folks,

My name is Joerg and I'm employed as a System Administrator at Bielefeld 
University.

I'm tasked to implement a password policy for our Linux systems. And I 
would like to contribute to the Linux System Roles project by creating a 
System Role for managing a Password Policy as described in Bugzilla 
2038620 (URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2038620).

I read the contribution guide but still have some questions before I start.

Is it a good way to start by cloning the template at 
https://github.com/linux-system-roles/template? And to sent a pull 
request once I have a minimum viable product to show?

Or would you suggest another way to start?

Looking forward to reading your answers, soon.

Best regards,
Joerg

Yes, and then I will create a new repo under
https://github.com/linux-system-roles/
https://github.com/linux-system-roles/template? perhaps "pw_policy",
"pwd_policy" - or perhaps it will be specific to pam?  so then just "pam"
or "pam_pwd"?
