[cdwg] cdwg Digest, Vol 27, Issue 20

[Michael K. Connolly]

Hi John,

 

Thanks for comments but I only made minor changes to use of the word Lustre
(needs to be an adjective) in my update.

 

The other points you referenced as change and some that are not in the
paragraph are not related to me but was how the text appeared from Galen.
Have a look at first version in thread compared to mine.

 

Have a great night.

 

Best Regards,

Michael,

Your rewrite obscures the fact that OpenSFS is not just involved in the
releases of Lustre but also has funded new feature development.   Until
there is more community-generated development, this function is no less
important than the release process.  

This sentence captures this thought more explicitly:




Since its inception, OpenSFS has funded development of important new Lustre
file system features and played a role in new Lustre file system
releases <http://lustre.opensfs.org/community-lustre-roadmap/> on behalf of
the open source development community. 



I also find the term "open source development community" to be awkward and
inexact since the beneficiaries of our efforts are all users of the Lustre
file system, not just the developers. 

thanks,

A further typo was alerted to me so here is new version:
