Hey Shyam,

Can we also have the heal info summary feature [1], which is merged upstream [2].
I haven't raised an issue for this yet, I can do that by tomorrow and I need to write a doc for that.

Thanks & Regards,
Karthik

Hi,

The next community release of Gluster is 3.13, which is a short term maintenance release is slated for release on 30th Nov [1] [2]. Thus giving a 2 month head room to get to 4.0 work done, while maintaining the cadence of releasing every 3 months.

This mail is to announce the scope, schedule and request contributors for the features that will make it to 3.13.

1) Scope:
3.13 is expected to be *lean* in scope, as most work is expected to be around 4.0 in the coming months. This STM can be considered as a sneak peek for some 4.0 features, that will *not* break any compatibility in the 3.x release line.

2) The release calendar looks as follows,
- Feature proposal end date: Sep-22-2017
- Branching: Oct-16-2017

3.13 was not branched on time, primarily due to lack of attention from my side.

I am planning on branching the release tomorrow (1st Nov 2017 @ 11:00 PM UTC) and as such have the following features in master that will be a part of this release, and need some information from the respective feature owners.

1) Initial versions of GFProxy, possibly tech preview (issue #242)
  - Announced in the summit, so I made some changes to the issue in github
  - @poornimag are all things tech preview related already in the code?

2) Data corruption in write ordering of rebalance and application writes (issue #308)
  - @raghavendrahg will this be ready in time before the branching?

<items from here are either ready or done and there are no further details needed at present>

3) Include details about memory pools in statedumps (issue #307)

4) posix: provide an option to reserve backend storage space (issue #236)

5) Have max-port range in glusterd.vol (issue #305)

6) snpashots issues with other processes accessing the mounted brick snapshots (issue #276)

7) List all the connected clients for brick and also exported bricks / snaps from each brick process (issue #178)

8) gfapi: APIs needed to register cbk functions for upcalls (issue #315)

9) gfapi: new macros GLFS_XALLOC/GLFS_FREE adds a glfs_mem_header for exported memory (issue #312)

10) Compilation warnings with gcc 7.x (issue #259) (partially fixed for 3.13)


- Release: Nov-30-2017

- Feature proposal:
   - Contributors need to request for features that will be a part of the 3.13 release, sending a mail to the devel list, and including the github issue # for the feature

- Branching: date by when declared features (appearing in the release lane, in the github project board [3]) need to be completed, incomplete or features that are not ready by the branching date, would be pushed out to the next release.

Thanks,
Shyam
