Hi All, There was one big change in GD2 in the past week. Prashanth completed embedding etcd into GD2 [1]. There is still a little work remaining to store/restore etcd configuration on GD2 restarts. Once that is done, we'll do a new release of GD2. I've continued working on volgen at [2]. I can now build a dependency graph for a brick. This not the final graph though, as it needs to be linearized to get the volume graph. I'll working on this next. In addition, the test program now outputs a graphviz dotfile output of the created graph, the makes it easier to visualize the graph during development. A sample generate graph can be viewed at [3]. I'm still planning the hangout on volgen, but it will be done (sometime soon).
