I would like to help.  I too have little time, however a stable production
sheepdog setup would be of great benefit so anything I can do to push it
in that direction I will :-)

I have only played with sheepdog compared to most people on this list so I
need to know the consensus is on stability for sheepdog and corosync?  Is
corosync still the preferred option and if so what version?  Anything else
I need to know?  Are people willing to pitch in with testing pre-release
debian builds?


Thanks,

Matt.
