### Related projects and efforts

#### Community Infra

- The Gerrit OS upgrade didn't go through during the holidays. We'll
be schduling it this month at an appropriate weekend.
- fstat also [shows branch
names](http://fstat.gluster.org/weeks/4/failure/82) now so you know if
a failure happens only in one specific branch. It only does this for
new jobs, not for old ones. (If there is demand, I'll add it for old
ones)
- When a NetBSD jobs is aborted, the machine will now be automatically
restarted.
- We've addded an additional machine for netbsd smoke since the queue
was getting quite long with just one machine.
