[Gluster-devel] GlusterFS Roadmap: Erasure codes.

[Rodney McDuff]

I was just looking at the GlusterFS Roadmap and thought that a nifty
feature for the future would be an AFR-like translator that uses
Reed-Solomon erasures codes instead for file replication. That would add
many 9s to the reliability without adding much storage overhead.
