Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-21346:
-------------------------------------
sorry I didn't catch all of this in the first post.
2.0+ the Release Notes link is to RELEASENOTES.md generated in the release
process. so same as CHANGES.md it should be linked within the release
artifacts. Both of those files are made by Apache Yetus Release Doc Maker.
> Update release procedure and website publishing docs in the book

> Now as part of the release process the RM must manually update the download
> page (hbase.apache.org/downloads/). To accomplish that [~mdrob] says

> To update the download links, on master branch edit

> New code lines also need a fork of the API documentation. To accomplish that:
> {quote}
> To update the API Docs and version specific reference guide, update
> src/site/site.xml with a new section to link to the docs in the drop down
> list. (only necessary the first time, but it hasn't been done yet for 1.4.x)
> Then git clone [https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/hbase-site.git] and
> make a 1.4 directory there. Copy contents of the docs/ directory from the
> release tarball to the version directory. Copy target/site/devapidocs and
> testapidocs from a local build of the tag, since those don't get published in
> the release tarball. Commit your changes, then do an empty commit with
> message "INFRA-10751 Empty commit". Push your changes
> {quote}
>
> Try this out. Take notes. Update the release instructions and website publish
> instructions in the book accordingly.
