Yeah, referring to the RELEASING docs here: 
https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/master/RELEASING.adoc

A stripped down set of steps to do a release are to:
- stage the RCs in a dev repo and vote on it: 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/kudu/
- once a vote succeeds, push that to the release repo: 
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/kudu/
- Apache will mirror the release, and there are a bunch of other requirements 
that are associated with the downloads page: 
https://www.apache.org/dev/release-download-pages.html

I just pushed the release repo, so we should see the artifacts mirrored soon.

Of note, this fix addresses:
- the fact that we are pointing at the dev repo, not the release repo
- From the requirements: "Do not link to dist.apache.org"
- From the requirements: "Links to the mirrored distribution artifacts must not 
reference the main Apache web site. They should use the standard mechanisms to 
distribute the load between the mirrors." (IIUC the Apache web site references 
should be handled by Apache's mirroring itself, and the "standard mechanism" to 
distribute load is the "closer" and "action=download" part of the new URL)

A step to come is:
- All official pre-releases (e.g. milestones, alphas, betas) must removed in a 
timely fashion once the final or GA version has been released. (I'll do this 
once everything is up and running)

I could put some or all of this in the commit message if you think it'd be 
appropriate.
