Gluster users - May 2013 - Coming Up Next Week: GlusterFS 3.4 Beta & GlusterFest Test Day

Greetings,

The first beta of glusterfs 3.4 is scheduled for release on Tuesday, May 7th. In
conjunction with the beta, we're running a GlusterFest: a 24-hour test day,
starting at 8pm PDT May 7/03:00 UTC May 8:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/GlusterFest.

Please join us for all the GlusterFest excitement, including:

- Testing the software. Install the new beta (when it's released) and put it
through its paces. You'll find some basic testing procedures linked from the
GlusterFest page. Also, check out this video introducing our new testing
framework: http://www.gluster.org/2013/04/gluster-testing-framework/

- Finding bugs. See the current list of bugs targeted for this release:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=895528

- Fixing bugs. For information about contributing to development, see:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Developers

If you need assistance, join us in #gluster on Freenode, or send a message to
the gluster-users mailing list for general usage questions, and gluster-devel
for anything related to building, patching, and bug-fixing.

Please spread the word to other potentially-interested Gluster testers!

Happy testing and bug-hunting,

-- Jason

Reminder - the 3.4 beta release is coming in a matter of hours, and so the
24-hour test fest will begin shortly thereafter.

Please take a look at the links below and acquaint yourself with the testing
framework.

Let''s make this the best release ever!

Hi all --

With glusterfs-3.4beta1 released [1], we're all set for some GlusterFest
testing action. You'll find pointers to Gluster Test Framework tests, basic
functionality tests, and test guidance for some of the new features in the
release linked from the GlusterFest page [2] on the project site.

If you have suggestions for improving the test materials, please feel free to
make edits/additions/improvements.

Happy testing, and I'll see you in #gluster

-- Jason (jbrooks)
