In the meantime another stable point release of ceph 0.80 (0.80.10) was released and on top of that there is a (minor) security issue which won't be fixed through a security update but which would be nice to fix by a stable update (see bug #798567 / CVE-2015-5245)). As another stable update has passed, it would be nice if someone of the stable release team could comment on this and eventually decide if they are OK with the proposal to follow the ceph stable branch or if they don't like it and would prefer an update just fixing the security bug. It would be nice to have a decision soon, so that there is enough time to prepare and test the update for the next stable point release. Gaudenz
