Thanks all who replied! It seems that Gluster 3.6 and 3.7 are the
releases we should provide through the Storage SIG. These will become
available for CentOS-7 and CentOS-6. We are also looking into providing
the Gluster 3.7 client packages for CentOS-5, but that will take a
little longer.

Thanks again,
Niels
