This is the fourth development release for Jewel. Several big pieces have been added this release, including BlueStore (a new backend for OSD to replace FileStore), many ceph-disk fixes, a new CRUSH tunable that improves mapping stability, a new librados object enumeration API, and a whole slew of OSD and RADOS optimizations.

Note that, due to general developer busyness, we aren’t building official release packages for this dev release. You can fetch autobuilt gitbuilder packages from the usual location (http://gitbuilder.ceph.com).
