Francois, I'd say those kinds of loose ends are not a problem at this point. This is the first RC and there's a very high probability that it will not be the last. Let's focus on the contents of the release (tar ball, vote email, release notes), and the loose ends can be cleared up after the release.
Hoppers, The release title should be "Apache Hop release 0.50 (incubating)". Which kind of indicates that the release is of "incubating" quality. Use that title throughout the vote email. Vote emails must include the hashes of the artifacts to be inspected. This is so that we can be certain that the artifacts being inspected by reviewers are the same as those being released and are the same as those received by anyone who downloads the release. That is, put the line 888f6c654cd5495725a56f0e0901cfcacaec56dd2173d2d9d63f592fdaf80a69296d4857e90a3b4d440455732618d4aa5b38e97382b72ecc2b225ba6b4b1e421 apache-hop-0.50-incubating-rc1.tar.gz in the vote email. Further comments when I have time later today.
