* Any release updates?
* Release updates
* 9.x will receive updates once in 6 month
* 10.x will receive update once in 3 month
[Shwetha] Next tentative dates:
* 9.x : Week of 20th Aug
* 10.x : Week of 15th May
- [Amar] Can the community agree to make a immediate release if we fix a
CVE/Crash bug? The release can just have tarball from glusterfs community,
and users who are impacted can work on getting their own rpm/deb packages
if needed in that cases (if release team feels its too much of work). But
not making a release (of at least a tarball) for CVEs and crash fixes is
not a good thing for the project IMO.

* Blocker issues across the project?
* None


* Notable thread from mailing list / User stories
* None

### Developer focus

* Any design specs to discuss?
- simple-quota: PR Is merged now. Pranith had some questions.
- One of them was why changes in DHT for simple-quota.
- This helped reduce the complexity of Quota feature by reducing the
challenge of running a separate daemon process (like quotad). Some 10 lines
saved the whole aggregation process as a separate one, thus making
management and maintenance simple.



### Component status
* Arbiter - stable/maintained
* AFR - stable/maintained
* DHT - stable/maintained
* EC - stable/maintained
* DOC - stable/maintained
* Geo Replication - stable/maintained
* Glusterd - stable/maintained

- Who is maintaining this? Can we make sure docs are up-to-date for
thin-arbiter?
