hi,
      Now that we are almost near the feature freeze date (31st of
      Aug),
want to get a sense if any of the status of the features.

Please respond with:
1) Feature already merged
2) Undergoing review will make it by 31st Aug
3) Undergoing review, but may not make it by 31st Aug
4) Feature won't make it for 3.9.

I added the features that were not planned(i.e. not in the 3.9 roadmap
page) but made it to the release and not planned but may make it to
release at the end of this mail.
If you added a feature on master that will be released as part of 3.9.0
but forgot to add it to roadmap page, please let me know I will add it.

Here are the features planned as per the roadmap:
1) Throttling
Feature owner: Ravishankar

2) Trash improvements
Feature owners: Anoop, Jiffin

I like to include one of patch [1] mentioned in the feature to be merge before branching.
Currently it is under review. I heard a lot of requests for below fix.

3) Kerberos for Gluster protocols:
Feature owners: Niels, Csaba

4) SELinux on gluster volumes:
Feature owners: Niels, Manikandan

5) Native sub-directory mounts:
Feature owners: Kaushal, Pranith

6) RichACL support for GlusterFS:
Feature owners: Rajesh Joseph

7) Sharemodes/Share reservations:
Feature owners: Raghavendra Talur, Poornima G, Soumya Koduri, Rajesh
Joseph, Anoop C S

8) Integrate with external resource management software
Feature owners: Kaleb Keithley, Jose Rivera

9) Python Wrappers for Gluster CLI Commands
Feature owners: Aravinda VK

10) Package and ship libgfapi-python
Feature owners: Prashant Pai

This has been packaged on PyPI and is available for installation using
pip[1].
But as per discussion on this thread[2], the RPM packages won't be built as
part of glusterfs release lifecycle and will continue to be external.

Also external packages are part of the Gluster Community, and can be
mentioned in the release notes. What is the status of the RPM packages
for Fedora and possibly packages for other distributions?

Yet to be put through fedora package review process. Currently working
to get it on gluster.org and get the spec[1] right. The RPMs sure
won't be available for Fedora and CentOS SIG by 31st August.

When introduced at a later date, the RPM won't have version 3.9 and
also wouldn't be dependent on 3.9 and will have any version (>=3.7) of
python-gluster package as a requirement.

3) Md-cache perf improvements in smb:
Feature owner: Poornima
