Release notes point to browsable JIRA
-------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-1684
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1684
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Marco Nicosia


Currently, the web pages on lucene.apache.org/hadoop link "release notes" as a 
pointer to JIRA. 
http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:changelog-panel

The problem with this is that JIRA's really not very user-friendly. Most of the 
Hadoop JIRA tickets describe the underlying cause, not the user exposed 
symptoms, so users who are nsidering a new release (say, looking for API 
changes) can't make head or tails of half of the tickets without being familiar 
with Hadoop internals.
