The initial release of Gluster 3.8 was the start of a new
Long-Term-Stable version with monthly updates. These updates include
bugfixes and stability improvements only, making it a version that can
safely be installed in production environments. It is planned that the
Long-Term-Stable versions receive updates for a year. With minor
releases going to happen every three months, the upcoming 3.9 version
will be a Short-Term-Stable with updates until the next version is
released three months later.
GlusterFS 3.8.1 has been released a week ago, and in the mean time
packages for many distributions have been made available. We recommend
all our 3.8.0 users to upgrade to 3.8.1. Environments that run on 3.6.x
should consider an upgrade path in the next months, 3.6 will be
End-Of-Life when 3.9 is released.
