<p>Hi all,</p>
There has been great delay in announcement of the major release<br>
GlusterFS-3.8 in gluster mali list. Apologies for that. Since
GlusterFS<br>
3.8 got released, the version 3.5 has reached EOL. We do our best to
<br>
maintain three versions of Gluster, with the 3.8 release it will be
3.8,<br>
3.7 and 3.6. This is a major release that includes a huge number of
<br>
changes including 15 plus features and 1228 bug fixes .Most of the
<br>
improvements contribute to better support of Gluster with
containers<br>
and running your storage on the sameserver as your hypervisors.<br>
Lots of work has been done to integrate with other projects that are<br>
part of the open source storage ecosystem. More information can<br>
be found in release note [1] and blog post [2]. The packages for the
<br>
various distribution can be downloaded from d.g.o[3]. <br>
<br>
Testing feedback and patches for issues observed in 3.8.0 are very <br>
welcome. If you would like to propose bug fix candidates or minor <br>
features for inclusion in 3.8.1, please add them to the tracker at
[4]. <br>
We intend to do fairly regular releases for stabilizing 3.8.x based
on <br>
your feedback.<br>
<br>
Thanks everybody who have contibuted to 3.8 release and make it<br>
happen on time <br>
