I have improved <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/IMPALA/DRAFT%3A+How+to+Release#DRAFT:HowtoRelease-HowtoVoteonaReleaseCandidate> with a more comprehensive script showing the steps to download and check some basic facts about a release.
Additionally, I have created an experimental Jenkins job (available only to committers right now) that runs some of the release steps for you: http://jenkins.impala.io:8080/view/Experimental/job/release-test/ I just made this job today; is is not battle-tested or hardened and it might fail for silly reasons.
