[Gluster-users] Thin-arbiter questions

Tue Jun 18 22:53:47 UTC 2019

Hi Hari,

Thanks for that information. So if I understand correctly, if thin-arbiter
is committed to the master branch by the 10th July, then it should be in
the CentOS package fairly soon afterwards?

I have a customer asking when we can use it, hence the questions. Thank you.
