Hello Jordi,

>    Just one thing: Have you ever thought to use multicast?

we had considered multicast at some point, but the advantages of
multicast do not really match our requirements. multicast is more for
'1-way announcment' kind of communication whereas glusterfs has more of
2-way point-to-point communication.

>    Thanks in advance and congratulations for this good job!!!

thanks :)
regards,
avati
