* Any release updates?
    * None

* Blocker issues across the project?
    * It looks like the lock-recovery changes introduced with
https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/22712/ has issues. We
already fixed https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/pull/2456 and
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/issues/2337 but looks like the
code is buggy. Need someone to take a look at the difference between
posix-locks and client xlators in how the locks are maintained to fix
the issue completely.


* Notable thread form mailing list
    * Not exactly from mailing list. Slack user pinged me and asked me
if it is possible to let the users know of any known issues in the
latest releases so that they can make a decision about which version
to use. For example: 9.0 and 9.1 had protocol issue.
    * Along the same lines, I wanted to ask one more question. Should
we release beta-releases for major releases so that we get feedback
about any issues that happen in their particular environment to
address the issues even before the stable releases are made?
