I haven't used 3.1 yet but I see memory changes to float.  That is good.
However, old 3.0 gmonds could still be reporting integers.  Are you sure
that gmetad can successfully get one correct total from two data types?

Please read bug#128 and see if it makes sense to change gmetad to do
sums as double no matter what the input type is.  It seems to work for
me, but maybe you have a reason for not doing that?  Thanks!

Subject: [Ganglia-general] Time to create the 3.1.x stable branch...

   I think that with the removal of the srclib directory from the SVN
trunk repository, we have completed everything that we thought needed to
be done before creating the 3.1.x stable branch.  The only other thing
that I know of is testing to make sure that an older 3.0.x gmetad can
consume the XML data from a newer 3.1.x gmond.  Has anybody had a chance
to test this?  

   I am proposing that we create the 3.1.x branch on Monday (3/17).
This should give people the weekend to tidy up anything that is left
before we create the branch and start working towards a stable 3.1.x
release. This will include all of the web frontend changes that have
recently been committed to TRUNK.  Are there SPEC file changes that need
to go in to support the modular web frontend stuff or was that already
done?   Once we create the branch, I would suggest that we also take a
snapshot tarball and get moving on testing and stabilization.  We are
going to need the help from everybody whether you are a Ganglia
developer or just a Ganglia user to make sure that we have a stable
3.1.x release.  

Of course once we do create the branch, the branch will be under RTC
rules http://ganglia.wiki.sourceforge.net/ganglia_works .

Any comments,

Brad
