Hey Cephers, For four days, August 10-13, Intel and Red Hat are holding a face to face Ceph hackathon in Hillsboro, Oregon! We will be focusing on both bug fixes and feature progression in the areas listed below. Any developer who has made a significant contribution to the Ceph code base is invited to join us. To support good collaboration we have a limit of 25 developers for this event. To request an invitation please email pmcgarry@xxxxxxxxxx with a link to your github user so that we can verify a few commits and ensure you are already comfortable with the Ceph code base. The following members of the Ceph core team will be joining the hackathon: * Josh Durgin (CTL for RBD) * Sam Just (CTL for RADOS) * Mark Nelson (Performance Engineer) The topics we hope to focus on are: * End to end performance and scalability for block storage * Performance of SSD for backing-store * Enhancements to RGW and streamlining the new Civetweb interface * Other ideas at the request of attendees… Hope to see you there! -- Best Regards, Patrick McGarry Director Ceph Community || Red Hat http://ceph.com || http://community.redhat.com @scuttlemonkey || @ceph -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
