[Gluster-devel] Release 3.10 feature proposal: Disable creation of trash directory by default

[Shyam]

Anoop,

I have summarily marked this for 3.10, but have a few requests here,

1) Can we open a spec for this?
2) We possibly need to understand backward compatibility issues/concerns 
if any? I.e existing volumes would already have created .trashcan etc. 
and how this change impacts those volumes.

Thanks,
Shyam
