    Hi All,<br>
    <br>
    CentOS board has approved the Storage SIG [2] and we are currently
    working on creating the required infrastructure for it [1]. <br>
    <br>
    If you are not aware about the CentOS Storage SIG, please read the
    proposal page [1]. <br>
    <i><br>
    </i><i>Deliverable of the SIG:</i> <br>
    <br>
    The Storage SIG seeks to make it easy to deploy CentOS as a storage
    node for various distributed and traditional storage solutions. This
    would include streamlined packaging and deployment deliverables as
    well as the management, updating, patching, and maintenance
    frameworks for those who wish to participate. We will only work with
    open source, re-distributable software. However some of the code we
    want to build and ship might not be mainline accepted as yet, and
    would be clearly indicated as such. <span class="anchor"
      id="line-7"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-8"></span>
    <p class="line874">Initially this SIG will deliver packages in the
      CentOS repositories for easy consumption and will then move on to
      broader, and more impactful, deployment and integration efforts.
      In tandem with efforts to make storage solutions easily
      deployable, this SIG will also work to maintain clear user
      documentation to help streamline adoption. <span class="anchor"
        id="line-9"></span><span class="anchor" id="line-10"></span></p>
    From GlusterFS point of view, here is a list of probable software
    which may be useful for the GlusterFS community. <i>Need your
      feedback on which software should make in to the CentOS Storage
      SIG</i>. After getting feedback from community we will finalize
    the list and work on the packaging on these software. <br>
