It would be nice to have RHGS's equivalent in CentOS, keeping with the general theme of CentOS. Any reason why that hasn't been considered ?
I do not know if this has been considered before I joined the Storage Special Interest Group. The SIGs that are part of the CentOS Community are free to provide newer packages from upstream projects, or even projects that are not part of RHEL or its add-ons. A more complete desctiption of what a SIG can provide/do is available on the CentOS wiki at https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup .
The RHGS product tracks the upstream Gluster packages pretty close. I do not think there is a need to provide a rebuild of the RHGS packages. That said, if there is anyone interested in providing those, speak up and join the Storage SIG! https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Storage
Thanks, Niels

Hi Gluster users running on CentOS!
As you may have heard before, we're planning on providing stable Gluster releases and related packages through the CentOS Storage SIG [0]. We would like to know what version of Gluster and which versions of CentOS are most wanted by our users.
The current support for Gluster defines 3 stable releases at the time. This means that 3.7, 3.6 and 3.5 are supported by the Gluster Community. Once 3.8 is released, 3.5 will become unsupported and will not receive any updates anymore. 3.8 is planned to be released early 2016 [1].
We can provide all Gluster packages for CentOS-7 and 6, but CentOS-5 can only get recent versions of the Gluster client.
Now, we want to know which combinations our users like to see in the CentOS Storage SIG:
CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.7: latest and greatest, will be included
CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.7: very much used release, also included
CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you?
CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you?
CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you?
CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you?
CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.7 (client only): nobody?
CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.6: nobody?
CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.5: nobody?
Please speak up and let us know what versions you depend on for next few months. You can reply to this email to the list (note that it is x-posted, one mailinglist is sufficient for your reply), directly to me or over IRC in #centos-devel or #gluster.
Many thanks, Niels
Hi all,
My production environments runs Gluster 3.7 for CentOS-7/6. I am not planning to use CentOS-5.
Thanks.
