Gluster users - Nov 2016 - Notice: https://download.gluster.org:/pub/gluster/glusterfs/LATEST has changed

Hi,

As some of you may have noticed, GlusterFS-3.9.0 was released. Watch
this space for the official announcement soon.

If you are using Community GlusterFS packages from download.gluster.org
you should check your package metadata to be sure that an update doesn't
inadvertently update your system to 3.9.

There is a new symlink:
https://download.gluster.org:/pub/gluster/glusterfs/LTM-3.8 which will
remain pointed at the GlusterFS-3.8 packages. Use this instead of
.../LATEST to keep getting 3.8 updates without risk of accidentally
getting 3.9. There is also a new LTM-3.7 symlink that you can use for
3.7 updates.

Also note that there is a new package signing key for the 3.9 packages
that are on download.gluster.org. The old key remains the same for 3.8
and earlier packages. New releases of 3.8 and 3.7 packages will continue
to use the old key.

GlusterFS-3.9 is the first "short term" release; it will be supported
for approximately six months. 3.7 and 3.8 are Long Term Maintenance
(LTM) releases. 3.9 will be followed by 3.10; 3.10 will be a LTM release
and 3.9 and 3.7 will be End-of-Life (EOL) at that time.

Hi,
Will disperse related new futures be ported to 3.7? or we should
upgrade for those features?

The new key had wrong username/group and selinux context. Someone came
on irc to notify us, I did fixed that. 

I am not sure how we can improve them, except with some upload script
rather than direct access.
