<div dir="ltr">hi, <br> maintaining a release by single person does take a lot of time away from development. Is it okay if two people maintain the release?

As GlusterFS 3.8 has been released, we need to start planning the 3.9<br>
release. It would be best if someone volunteers for this task so that we<br>
stick to the release schedule. 3.9 is planned to be released in three<br>
months, that would be September this year. With this release cycle the<br>
3.9+1 release (Long Term Stable) will be in December. It really is<br>
important for our community of developers and users that we manage to<br>
stick to our plans.<br>
<br>
The immediate tasks for 3.9 are:<br>
<br>
- find/appoint/announce a release manager<br>
- gather features that developers want to see included<br>
- update the 3.9 roadmap [1]<br>
- open a glusterfs-3.9.0 tracker bug<br>
- attach feature implementation bugs to the tracker<br>
- get regular status updates from the developers of 3.9 features<br>
- make sure that all features are ready before the end of August<br>
<br>
These tasks should be relatively simple for any of the current<br>
maintainers. I'll be able to assist if needed. During this process, we<br>
should work together to document all of the steps so that future<br>
releases can follow the same workflow.<br>
<br>
So, who wants to take this on?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Niels<br>
