Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze commented on HADOOP-11731:
----------------------------------------------
> ... the changes.txt gets updated when it's incorrect vs the jira summary
We won't update it since CHANGES.txt and jira summary are not supposed to be
the same.
> the generated results provide links to the jira, providing easy click history
> to see what has happened.
The entry in CHANGES.txt is a concise statement about the change committed. It
takes much more time to understand what was going to read the JIRA itself,
especially, when there was a long discussion.

> The current way we generate these build artifacts is awful. Plus they are
> ugly and, in the case of release notes, very hard to pick out what is
> important.
