Hi All,

To supplement our ongoing effort of better patch management, I am
proposing the addition of more maintainers for various components. The
rationale behind this proposal & the responsibilities of maintainers
continue to be the same as discussed in these lists a while ago [1] [2].
Here is the proposed list:

Jeff Darcy: Overall Maintainer across various components.

Bitrot - Venky Shankar & Raghavendra Bhat

Erasure Coding - Xavier Hernandez & Pranith Karampuri

Fuse - Niels de Vos & Raghavendra Bhat

Glusterd - Atin Mukherjee

libglusterfs - Pranith Karampuri & Niels de Vos

Snapshot - Rajesh Joseph

Tiering & libgfdb - Dan Lambright

Upcall infrastructure - Niels de Vos

I think it is very appropriate for us to now consider tests as a core
component. In view of that, I propose the following maintainers for
tests to help us build our overall test strategy and improve test
coverage across the project.

Tests & distaf - Raghavendra Talur & Vishwanath Bhat

(for the uninitiated distaf is the regression test framework where we
will be plugging in more tests)

In addition, given how glusterd & cli code is structured it seems more
appropriate that respective component maintainers manage their part of
code in these directories. The existing glusterd & cli maintainers will
continue to manage the core framework.

We intend to roll ahead with these changes by 10th of June. Please let
us know if you have objections, concerns or feedback on any of these
proposals by then.


These proposals are now live. To summarize:

1. The proposed new maintainers are now official and have been added to the glusterfs-maintainers group in gerrit. This should enable new maintainers to merge patches in gerrit. I will be sending a patch to update MAINTAINERS file in the code repository.

2. cli & glusterd code changes pertaining to specific components will be managed by respective component maintainers.

Regards,
Vijay
