Hi,

I'm happy to report that 

  Abhishek L <abhishek.lekshmanan@gmail.com> (Reliance Jio Infocomm Ltd)
  LOPEZ Jean-Charles <jelopez@redhat.com> (Red Hat)
  Alistair Israel <aisrael@gmail.com> (ACALEPH)

proposed to help and are now part of the stable releases and backport team at http://tracker.ceph.com/projects/ceph-releases

It will probably take us a few months to learn how to work together effectively. My hope is that when the process is polished and documented more people can join the team to support stable versions.

Cheers

Instead of waiting until the process and tools are fully polished, it would be great if a one or two person have time and motivation to step up right away.
