[Gluster-Maintainers] Release 5: Branched and further dates

[Shyam Ranganathan]

Hi,

Release 5 has been branched today. To backport fixes to the upcoming 5.0
release use the tracker bug [1].

We intend to roll out RC0 build by end of tomorrow for testing, unless
the set of usual cleanup patches (op-version, some messages, gfapi
version) land in any form of trouble.

RC1 would be around 24th of Sep. with final release tagging around 1st
of Oct.

I would like to encourage everyone to test out the bits as appropriate
and post updates to this thread.

Thanks,
Shyam
