Jinwoo, No, your suggestion won't work as written. You are either the "Release Manager for the Apache Geode project" OR "Release Manager for the Apache Geode 2.0 release". There really should be no such thing as an "Apache Geode 2.0 project".
Let me know which one you prefer, but honestly, the way it is written now is fine.
