Hello Gluster Ants! Thanks for all the slogan suggestions that you've provided. I've made an etherpad page which collected them all, along with some additional suggestions made by Red Hat's Brand team: https://public.pad.fsfe.org/p/gluster-slogans Feel free to discuss them (either here or on the etherpad). If you like a particular slogan, feel free to put a + next to it on the etherpad. Before we can pick a new slogan, it needs to be cleared by Red Hat Legal, this is a small formality to make sure that we're not infringing someone else's trademark or doing anything that would cause Red Hat undue risk. We don't want to waste their time by having them clear every possible suggestion, so your feedback is very helpful to allow us to narrow down the list. At the end of the day, barring legal clearance, the slogan selection is up to the community. Thanks! ~tom =Red Hat

[Gluster-users] [Gluster-devel] Gluster Slogans Revisited
I liked:
Gluster: Redefine storage.
Gluster: Software-Defined Storage. Redefined
Gluster: RAID G
Gluster: RAISE (redundant array of inexpensive storage equipment)
Gluster: Software {re}defined storage+
And suggested:
Gluster {DS|FS|RAISE|RAIDG}: Software Defined Storage Redefined(some
combination of lines 38-42)
My thinking is:
<Our new name GlusterDS/whatever>: <Tagline with excitement>
Gluster * - This is the change gluster fs to gluster ds idea we were
discussing this already. Maybe we could even come up with a
longer acronym, like RAIDG or RAISE or something more definitive of what we
are? I think instead of jsut using Gluster: we come up with the new way to
refer to glusterFS and use this as a way to push that as well.
Tagline - Whatever cool saying that get people excited to check out
glusterDS/glusterRAIDG/ whatever
So ex:
Gluster RAISE: Software Defined Storage Redifined
Gluster DS: Software defined storage defined your way
Gluster RAIDG: Storage from the ground up
Just my $0.02
