Hi All,
Below is the final details of our community meeting, and I will be sending
invites to mailing list following this email. You can add Gluster Community
Calendar so you can get notifications on the meetings.
We are starting the meetings from next week. For the first meeting, we need
1 volunteer from users to discuss the use case / what went well, and what
went bad, etc. preferrably in APAC region. NA/EMEA region, next week.
