Stefan Podkowinski commented on CASSANDRA-14970:
------------------------------------------------
What you're referring to in the ticket description is the distribution policy,
not the release policy. The later doesn't mention any requirement for PMCs to
verify checksum, only the detached signature. So I don't see any need to
generate any checksums at all, before voting and eventually copying new
artifacts into the dist svn tree. I'd also argue that generating checksums
locally in finish_release.sh will make things necessarily more complex,
compared to generating them via ant and upload+download them from nexus again
later and then copy to dist.
> New releases must supply SHA-256 and/or SHA-512 checksums

> Release policy was updated around 9/2018 to state:
> "For new releases, PMCs MUST supply SHA-256 and/or SHA-512; and SHOULD NOT
> supply MD5 or SHA-1. Existing releases do not need to be changed."
> build.xml needs to be updated from MD5 & SHA-1 to, at least, SHA-256 or both.
> cassandra-builds/cassandra-release scripts need to be updated to work with
> the new checksum files.
