Hi Niels,

Such mail around the CI environment should be probably be sent/discussed
on the ci-users list (see
https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/ci-users) : that's where some
requests are tracked/discussed and other projects are giving their
opinions/ideas/suggestions too.
For the "reserved ip addresses" question, we can even have a dedicated
block for gluster, outside of the CI subnet itself. But let's discuss
this on the appropriate list :-)
