I do not know if this has been considered before I joined the Storage
Special Interest Group. The SIGs that are part of the CentOS Community
are free to provide newer packages from upstream projects, or even
projects that are not part of RHEL or its add-ons. A more complete
desctiption of what a SIG can provide/do is available on the CentOS wiki
at https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup .

The RHGS product tracks the upstream Gluster packages pretty close. I do
not think there is a need to provide a rebuild of the RHGS packages.
That said, if there is anyone interested in providing those, speak up
and join the Storage SIG!

Thanks,
Niels
