[Gluster-users] A short farewell to the Gluster community
Good day. After a lengthy period of consideration, i have decided to move on from Red Hat, and as such, step down from the board as well as out of the community lead role. GlusterFS is a vibrant technology. It has the ability to change the nature of globalized file systems, and to help deliver the every increasing needs for files and storage in a cloud driven, IoT world. And it needs a community lead to be deeper technology-wise, while retaining a the ability to lead a community to deliver ever better, ever more stable releases. The community team building ever better versions of GlusterFS have been outstanding. So while I am leaving for a new adventure, rest assured that it will have open sources roots somewhere, I know I'm leaving GlusterFS ready for its next steps. We will be determining who will be stepping into the board seat held by Red Hat and working on enhancing the overall community. Over the next few months, we will be searching for the right person to take over the new and revitalized Gluster community lead role.

[Gluster-users] Call for proposals: LSF/MM conference
The annual Linux Storage, Filesystem and Memory Management Summit for 2015 will be held on March 9th and 10th before the Linux Foundation Vault conference at the Revere Hotel, Boston MA. For those that do not know, Vault is designed to be an event where open source storage and filesystem practitioners meet storage implementors and, as such, it would be of benefit for LSF/MM attendees to go to at least the first day of Vault. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linux-storage-filesystem-and-mm-summit http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/vault On behalf of the committee I am issuing a call for agenda proposals that are suitable for cross-track discussion as well as technical subjects for the breakout sessions. 1) Proposals for agenda topics should be sent before January 16th, 2015 to: lsf...@lists.linux-foundation.org and cc the Linux list or lists that are most interested in it: ATA: linux-...@vger.kernel.org FS: linux-fsde...@vger.kernel.org MM: linux...@kvack.org SCSI: linux-s...@vger.kernel.org If advance notice is required for visa applications then please send proposals before January 1st. The committee will complete the first round of selections near that date to accommodate applications. Please tag your proposal with [LSF/MM TOPIC] to make it easier to track. Agenda topics and attendees will be selected by the program committee, but the final agenda will be formed by consensus of the attendees on the day. We will try to cap attendance at around 25-30 per track to facilitate discussions although the final numbers will depend on the room sizes at the venue. 2) Requests to attend the summit should be sent to: lsf...@lists.linux-foundation.org Please summarise what expertise you will bring to the meeting, and what you would like to discuss. Please also tag your email with [LSF/MM ATTEND] so there is less chance of it getting lost. Presentations are allowed to guide discussion, but are strongly discouraged. There will be no recording or audio bridge. However, we expect that written minutes will be published as we did in previous years 2014: http://lwn.net/Articles/LSFMM2014/ 2013: http://lwn.net/Articles/548089/ 2012: http://lwn.net/Articles/490114/ http://lwn.net/Articles/490501/ 3) If you have feedback on last year's meeting that we can use to improve this year's, please also send that to: lsf...@lists.linux-foundation.org 4) We would like to remind those that are are also interested in presenting at the Vault conference that the CFP deadline for Vault is December 1st.

As we roll towards the release of GlusterFS 3.6.0, it seemed a good time to find out what and how you are using GlusterFS. To that end, we’ve got a short poll up at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/gluster2014 https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/gluster2014, which should be pretty quick for you to take. This is completely anonymous, unless you choose to opt in to allow follow up. We will not be using any contact information for any purposes other than a possible follow up. When we finalize the information, I’ll share the findings with you in a future posting.
