The Ansible Core team is not responsible for OS packaging.  The only
official packaging of ansible-core for upstream lives on pypi.org.  From a
downstream Red Hat perspective, ansible-core 2.11 is available to Ansible
Automation Platform customers.

I will note that ansible-core has been accepted into the appstream for
CentOS Stream, and will also be included in RHEL 8.6 and RHEL 9.0 starting
in May.

You will note that I mention the package name `ansible-core` several times
here.  In 2.10 the package was split into 2 parts, an `ansible-core`
packaging containing the CLI tools, and a small number of plugins, and then
the `ansible` package which bundles a large number of community maintained
plugins.

I do see ansible-core packages for Fedora listed at
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ansible-core
