            Bug ID: 1457824
           Summary: New branch for 'glusterfs' project called
                    'experimental'
           Product: GlusterFS
           Version: mainline
         Component: project-infrastructure
          Assignee: bugs at gluster.org
          Reporter: atumball at redhat.com
                CC: bugs at gluster.org, gluster-infra at gluster.org



Description of problem:

* This is where one can push any conceptual changes for review and get it
merged quickly.

   - To make sure we don't delay, after every 1 week if there are no merges, a
patch would be merged. (If there are no -1).
   - Manually, it can be merged even before.

* Review comments on this branch is absolutely about concept and design, and no
nitpicks. even ./rfc.sh would be changed to allow (with a question) even in
case of Errors.
* All fundamental changes (like file type in GFID, DHT layout changes, etc)
gets merged here first, and once baked can be taken as a single patch and get
merged in master, which would make it to next release branch cut.
* This branch would have life for 6 months, and after 6 months a new branch
would be cut-off from master, so any features which can't be stabilized in 6
months, needs to be rebased at least once in 6 months to new branch. This way,
it would be much easier for everyone to experiment their ideas.
* As this branch doesn't need a bugzilla ID to work, having github issues (for
an RFE) would be must. Not having github ID can fetch -1 review points.

* Decision to merge the changes to upstream is left to the discretion of
author, who can cherry-pick and push changes to master, when she/he thinks it
is ready to be consumed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
branch out from current 'master' branch


## Additional info:

* This branch will have merge permission for 'amarts' user on github.
* It needs to run smoke test to verify the patch and will have a scoring system
of +2 for review (1 automatic score, another manual) once met, it can be
merged.


* It should run all the current 8hrs tests once in a week, and rpm used for the
tests should be given for download.
