I've created an empty repository for you now. Please start with
explaining the purpose/goals/ideas/... on the GitHub wiki:

    https://github.com/gluster/gluster-coreutils/wiki

When you have an idea how to get seriously started, push the code to the
repository. The explanation to do so can be found here:

    https://github.com/gluster/gluster-coreutils

Let me know if you need any assistance.

Thanks,
Niels
