Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-12298:
-------------------------------------------
Or, maybe we just need to say "we treat < and > as valid chars in markdown
because you may want to translate that to HTML intentionally". It's in the
"notableclean" code (i.e., changes file) but not in the "tableclean" (i.e.,
releasenotes) so clearly this must have been hit at some point. But I'm now
doubting whether that was the correct decision. At least, attempting to build
Hadoop's release notes from day 1 is hitting all kinds of problems mainly due
to < and >.
> releasedocmaker isn't translating greater than/less than signs in releasenotes

> Somewhere along the way, releasedocmaker stopped translating greater than and
> less than signs in release notes. mvn site blows up when it comes across a
> broken one. github drops the word entirely when rendering.
