Just some comments about 3.7.x:

- 3.6.1 (from Wednesday) is the latest official release

- some time ago I made a 3.7.0 tag but it was never announced as a
release as it has some issues

- the next attempt to release 3.7.x will be a tag 3.7.1

- 3.7 adds a new dependency, Concurrency Kit
   - I've created a package for Concurrency Kit in Debian and Ubuntu
     https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=ck&suite=unstable
   - notice it doesn't build on all architectures, this has been
reported upstream,
      waiting for them to resolve it
   - Fedora / EPEL (RHEL/CentOS):
      - package request:
         https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010613
      - doesn't appear to be available at all in any Fedora version yet,
         so it can't even start going through to EPEL6 or EPEL7
   - if releasing Ganglia 3.7.x before the Concurrency Kit packages are
available,
     then it means the 3.6 packages will hang around in the
distributions for a lot longer
   - if releasing Ganglia 3.7.x before the Concurrency Kit package is
stable on all architectures,
     then people who use gmetad on non-Intel/non-Linux platforms will be
stuck
