[Gluster-devel] Release 6: Branched and next steps

[Shyam Ranganathan]

Hi,

Release 6 is branched, and tracker bug for 6.0 is created [1].

Do mark blockers for the release against [1].

As of now we are only tracking [2] "core: implement a global thread pool
" for a backport as a feature into the release.

We expect to create RC0 tag and builds for upgrade and other testing
close to mid-week next week (around 13th Feb), and the release is slated
for the first week of March for GA.

I will post updates to this thread around release notes and other
related activity.

Thanks,
Shyam
