Hi Junping, Thanks a lot for leading the effort on 2.6.4.
We were discussing in HDFS-9629, and have agreement on adding an additional step in the release process to update the year in the webui footer. See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-9629?focusedCommentId=15130043&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15130043 I noticed that the current RC for 2.6.4 still has the year of 2014 (the example steps in the above link is validated on 2.6.4 RC0). So the steps I proposed in the link could be applied when we create new RCs. Thanks Akira for +1 on this proposed additional release step. Once we have an agreement on the details, we will update the wiki page accordingly.
