This is the first release candidate for Hammer, and includes all of
the features that will be present in the final release. We welcome
and encourage any and all testing in non-production clusters to identify
any problems with functionality, stability, or performance before the
final Hammer release.
We suggest some caution in one area: librbd. There is a lot of new
functionality around object maps and locking that is disabled by
default but may still affect stability for existing images. We are
continuing to shake out those bugs so that the final Hammer release
(probably v0.94) will be stable.
