[Linux-HA] Re: [Linux-ha-dev] [ANNOUNCE] 8 node clusters!

[Andrew Beekhof (GMail)]

So as fun as this little tangent has been, if we could go back to the 
original point of the email...

	Heartbeat can do _at least_ 8-node clusters nodes now!  How damn cool 
is that!

A bunch of people have been working their butts off for over a year on 
this, and I for one am bloody excited about what we've been able to 
produce.  I was hoping to share that enthusiasm with all the people 
that have posted here wanting to know if we supported more than 2 
nodes.  To tell them that the sooner they get involved, in whatever 
capacity they can, the sooner we can release 2.0 and declare it ready 
for production.

Neither the website nor the new functionality is perfect, but Heartbeat 
is a _community_ effort, so the only way to make it better is to get 
involved.  There is always something you can do, be it testing, 
documentation, development, or even helping out on the mailing lists... 
every little bit helps the project and in the end, helps you too.
