[Gluster-users] State of the gluster project

[Strahil Nikolov]

Well,
After IBM acquisition, RH discontinued their support in many projects including GlusterFS (certification exams were removed, payed product went EOL, etc).
The only way to get it back on track is with a sponsor company that haves the capability to drive it.Kadalu is relying on GlusterFS but they are not as big as Red Hat and based on one of the previous e-mails they will need sponsorship to dedicate resources.

Hi all,
I just have a general thought about the gluster
project.
I have got the feeling that things has slowed down
in the gluster project.
I have had a look at github and to me the project
seems to slow down, for gluster version 11 there has
been no minor releases, we are still on 11.0 and I have
not found any references to 11.1.
There is a milestone called 12 but it seems to be
stale.
I have hit the issue:
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/issues/4085
that seems to have no sollution.
I noticed when version 11 was released that you
could not bump OP version to 11 and reported this,
but this is still not available.

I am just wondering if I am missing something here?

We have been using gluster for many years in production
and I think that gluster is great!! It has served as well over
the years and we have seen some great improvments
of stabilility and speed increase.

So is there something going on or have I got
the wrong impression (and feeling)?

Best regards
Marcus
