Hello, all. I am a little bit impressed by the lack of action on this topic. I hate to be "that guy", specially being new here, but it has to be done.
If I've got this right, we have here a chance of developing Gluster even further, sponsored by Google, with a dedicated programmer for the summer. In other words, if we play our cards right, we can get a free programmer and at least a good start/advance on this fantastic. Well, I've checked the trello board, and there is a fair amount of things there. There are a couple of things that are not there as well. I think it would be nice to listen to the COMMUNITY (yes, that means YOU), for either suggestions, or at least a vote. My opinion, being also my vote, in order of PERSONAL preference: 1) There is a project going on, that consists on re-writing the stripe module on gluster. This is specially importnt because it has 2) We have a recurring issue with split-brain solution. There is an entry on trello asking/suggesting a mechanism that arbitrates this resolution automatically. I pretty much think this could come together with another solution that is file replication consistency check.
