Chris Douglas commented on HADOOP-11731: ---------------------------------------- bq. An example of JIRA information being inaccurate is that the assignee is missing... Some of these inconsistencies are easier to spot with the tool, and fix both JIRA and the release notes. [~aw], would it be difficult to add a report for cases where the assignee is missing, incompatible changes don't have release notes, etc? I see it prints a warning for the latter, but a lint-style report could help RMs fixup JIRA as part of rolling a release. bq. The single line summary at the top of a JIRA isn't what you are putting in CHANGES.txt? I sometimes add more detail in the commit message, but if committers get used to setting the summary and release notes this seems workable. > Rework the changelog and releasenotes > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-11731 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11731 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: documentation > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Allen Wittenauer > Assignee: Allen Wittenauer > Fix For: 3.0.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-11731-00.patch, HADOOP-11731-01.patch, > HADOOP-11731-03.patch, HADOOP-11731-04.patch, HADOOP-11731-05.patch, > HADOOP-11731-06.patch, HADOOP-11731-07.patch > > > The current way we generate these build artifacts is awful.
