[Gluster-devel] DHT2 for Gl4.0: Project update

[Shyam]

Hi,

DHT2 initial prototype development is targeted in gerrithub [1] with its 
backed github repos from [2].

The git repos at [1/2] should serve as the single point for all DHT2 
related information going forward.

Here are the important directories to monitor for documentation and code 
for DHT2,
- xlator/cluster/dht2/docs
- xlator/cluster/dht2/src

The initial prototype design is derived from the design documents 
previously posted at [3, 4] and, can be found here [5].

The milestones and plans would also be put into the same directory as 
[5] and we intend to maintain weekly update reports on progress et. al. 
at the same place (i.e we would open a review, update it and commit it 
into the repo.)

The current work is to write POSIX layer to suit the on disk layout as 
needed by DHT2, so that we can then start writing DHT2 code.

Work till now can be found in the gerrithub project.
