We also need to archive the previous releases, which actually means to
delete them from SVN (the archival is going to happen automatically).
This also needs to redirect 9.0 update center to the archive.apache.org.
I'm modifying the Jenkins release job to generate SHA-512 checksums for
the next time.

Hi all, especially Laszlo,
Aside from the concerns in the IPMC vote, i.e.,

-- new releases MUST be accompanied by a SHA-256 and/or SHA-512
checksum file
-- new releases SHOULD NOT be accompanied by MD5 or SHA-1
checksum file ;
-- "new" == after 18 Aug 2018
...we also need to change the name of the file providing the sources and
ZIP, so that 'vc3' is not included.
Right now, 'vc3' is in the name of the file:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans/incubating-10.0-vc3/
...but for 9.0, you can see that no 'vc' is included there, it is simply
'9.0', e.g.,:
https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/incubator/netbeans/incubating-netbeans-java/incubating-9.0/incubating-netbeans-java-9.0-source.zip
This file will have the same hash as the current vc3 ZIP, the content is
the same, i.e., it's not a new release (requiring a new vote etc) just
stripping 'vc3' from the file name should be no problem -- we did similar
things before.
Also note that we're not able to (we should not) announce the release until
Jirka Kovalsky has updated the redirection on the Apache NetBeans VM to
point the update center URL to the correct destination -- it took several
days last time before this could be done because the mirrors needed to be
synchronized first.
Thanks,
Gj
