------------------------------------------------------------------
According to Allen, we can generate release notes for all releases in a range
to bootstrap:
{noformat}
releasedocmaker.py --license --projecttitle "Apache HBase" --index --project
HBASE \
--range --version 0.98.0 --version 2.0.0
{noformat}
Could do this by hand, update one of the site sources to point to where the
generated relnotes land, then commit the results.
In order to make this repeatable for RCs, we'll need to have a Yetus release to
consume or temporarily take releasedocmaker.py into our dev-support/ (the
latter being a poor option), then add the right magic to make_rc.sh and release
HOWTO.

> Adopt releasedocmaker for better generated release notes

> We should consider adopting Hadoop's releasedocmaker for better release
> notes. This would pull out text from the JIRA 'release notes' field with
> clean presentation and is vastly superior to our current notes, which are
> simply JIRA's list of issues by fix version. Could hook it into the site
> build. A convenient part of Yetus to get up and running with.
