Hi folks!

Our Peter was asking in Slack about how to find the announcement for EOL on
HBase 2.3 releases. I did some digging around and I think there's been a
miscommunication.

The page header on our project's space on the ASF downloads page[1]
currently says 2.3 was EOL in October 2021. But none of the usual cleanup
has happened; namely 2.3.7 is still in our project download hosting and
listed on our download page.

I’ve found this discussion of EOL 2.3 which we listed in our board report:
https://s.apache.org/i56se

That discussion basically ended with "we need to have the stable pointer
updated to 2.4 first". After that discussion 2.3.7 was released. I can't
find any further discussion or a VOTE thread.

Personally I think we ought to just do a quick VOTE to make it EOL and
clean things up.

What do others think?
