[Gluster-Maintainers] On knowledge transfer of some of the components

[Amar Tumballi]

Really appreciate the initiative!!

It would be good to start doing more of knowledge sharing sessions for
other components too. How about a weekly slot which can be recorded well
too. (Lets book Kadamba in BLR office, so we can do a decent recording of
BJ session).
