[Shyam Ranganathan]

Hi,

Post release 4.1 we have announced a release version and cadence change
to the lists [1]. Based on this the next release of Gluster would be "5"
and is slated during the first week of October, 2018 [2].

With this release of Gluster (i.e 5), 3.12 will be EOLd and that is the
last release in the 3.x line for Gluster.

This mail is to solicit the following,

Features/enhancements planned for Gluster 5 needs the following from
contributors:
  - Open/Use relevant issue
  - Mark issue with the "Release 5" milestone [3]
  - Post to the devel lists issue details, requesting addition to track
the same for the release

I will follow this mail up, within a week, with a calendar of activities
as usual.

Thanks,
Shyam
