Many thanks Daryl! Information like this is sufficient for me to mark
packages for release. The 3.8.8 packages will be signed and pushed to
the CentOS mirrors the next time the CentOS team runs the procedure
(probably Monday morning).

The announcement has also been sent out, and the blog post with the
release notes should show up on http://planet.gluster.org/ any minute
now.

Cheers,
Niels
