After sending this yesterday, I realized that some of you may not know what the t-shirt in question looks like: - http://community.redhat.com/rev-your-rdma-engines-for-the-rdma-glusterfest/ - http://community.redhat.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/gluster-shirt.png Also, some of you voiced a desire to have more time to get RDMA tests set up, so we'll extend the testing through monday - make it 00:00 UTC on Tuesday, June 25. Respond with a +1 if you would like that. -JM On Thu, Jun 20, 2013 at 6:58 PM, John Mark Walker <johnmark at johnmark.org> wrote: > It's that time again ? we want to test the GlusterFS 3.4 beta before > we unleash it on the world.
