hi,
         I think we fixed quite a few heavy hitters in the past week and
reasonable number of regression runs are passing which is a good sign.
Most of the new heavy hitters in regression failures seem to be code
problems in quota/afr/ec, not sure about tier.t (Need to get more info
about arbiter.t, read-subvol.t etc). Do you guys have any ideas in
keeping the regression failures under control?
The deluge of regression failures is a direct consequence of last minute
merges during (extended) feature freeze. We did well to contain this. Great stuff!
If we want to avoid this we should not accept (large) feature merges just before feature freeze.
Hmm... I am not sure, most of the fixes in the last week I saw were bugs in tests or .rc files. The failures in afr and ec were problems that existed even in 3.6. They are showing up more now probably because 3.7 is a bit more parallel.

Here are some of the things that I can think of:
0) Maintainers should also maintain tests that are in their component.
It is not possible for me as glusterd co-maintainer to 'maintain' tests that are added
under tests/bugs/glusterd. Most of them don't test core glusterd functionality.
They are almost always tied to a particular feature whose implementation had bugs
in its glusterd code. I would expect the test authors (esp. the more recent ones) to chip in.
Thoughts/Suggestions?
How about moving these tests to the respective component and not accepting tests in other components to be under tests/bugs/glusterd in future?
