Arun / Subru, Thanks for the great work!
Few quick comments - Can you cleanup the RC folder to only have tar.gz and src.tar.gz and their signatures and delete everything else? So that it's easy to pick up the important bits for the voters. For e.g, like this http://people.apache.org/~vinodkv/hadoop-2.8.1-RC3/ <http://people.apache.org/~vinodkv/hadoop-2.8.1-RC3/> - Can you put the generated CHANGES.html and releasenotes.html instead of the md files, for quicker perusal?
