3.11 Retrospective
Thanks all who gave feedback! From the notes we got, you’d like to see
us do better release testing, you want to continue to see a focus on
performance for small files, gluster swift, monitoring. You like how
we’re putting our release plans publicly on Github, and we’re planning
on continuing that! You’d like to see the ways that a feature gets
proposed be streamlined, and we’ll look to that in future releases.
We’ll be doing retrospectives for every major release, watch for the
next one for 3.12.
