Hi,
With release 3.10 shipped [1], it is time to set the dates for
release
3.11 (and subsequently 4.0).
This mail has the following sections, so please read or revisit
as needed,
- Release 3.11 dates (the schedule)
- 3.11 focus areas
Pinging the list on the above 2 items.
*Release 3.11 dates:*
Based on our release schedule [2], 3.11 would be 3 months from
the 3.10
release and would be a Short Term Maintenance (STM) release.
This puts 3.11 schedule as (working from the release date
backwards):
- Release: May 30th, 2017
- Branching: April 27th, 2017
Branching is about 2 weeks away, other than the initial set of
overflow features from 3.10 nothing else has been raised on the
lists and in github as requests for 3.11.
So, a reminder to folks who are working on features, to raise the
relevant github issue for the same, and post it to devel list for
consideration in 3.11 (also this helps tracking and ensuring we are
waiting for the right things at the time of branching).
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/issues/158 will get into 3.11. This
feature enhances the existing get-state cli implementation to add few
more parameters like client details, brick consumption to the output
file so that these new attributes can be considered by tendrl project.
Thank you, added to the board.
*3.11 focus areas:*
As maintainers of gluster, we want to harden testing around the
various
gluster features in this release. Towards this the focus area
for this
release are,
1) Testing improvements in Gluster
- Primary focus would be to get automated test cases to determine
release health, rather than repeating a manual exercise every 3
months
- Further, we would also attempt to focus on maturing
Glusto[7] for
this, and other needs (as much as possible)
2) Merge all (or as much as possible) Facebook patches into
master, and
hence into release 3.11
- Facebook has (as announced earlier [3]) started posting their
patches mainline, and this needs some attention to make it into
master
Further to the above, we are also considering the following features
for this release, request feature owners to let us know if these are
actively being worked on and if these will make the branching dates.
(calling out folks that I think are the current feature owners for
the same)
1) Halo - Initial Cut (@pranith)
2) IPv6 support (@kaushal)
3) Negative lookup (@poornima)
4) Parallel Readdirp - More changes to default settings. (@poornima,
@du)
