<p dir="ltr">Greetings, we are pleased to announce that Citrix and Harvard's FASRC have signed letters of intent to join the Gluster Community.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Citrix is helping us with Xen and CloudStack integration, and FASRC is pushing GlusterFS to the limit with its life sciences computing workloads and several petabytes of storage.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Additionally, the board would like to extend a warm welcome to Theron Conrey, Anand Avati, Mark Hinkle and James Cuff as new members. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Anand Avati should be well-known to all Gluster Community people, as he's the most prolific code contributor and lead architect. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Theron Conrey is a leading advocate of converged infrastructure technologies and has spoken at many events about GlusterFS and virtualization workloads. </p>
