I was evaluating the release bits when I noticed that the change done in HDFS-4763 to add support for starting the HDFS NFSv3 gateway, which is marked with a "fix version" of 2.1.0-beta and included in the release notes of RC2, is not in fact included in the RC2 release bits. It looks to me like the change is included in branch-2.1-beta, but not branch-2.1.0-beta.
Particularly since the release notes in RC2 are incorrect in claiming that this change is in this release, it seems like a pretty serious issue. Ordinarily I'd say that this issue should result in a new RC, and I would vote -1 on RC2. But, given the previous discussion that folks are interested in releasing 2.1.0-beta with several fairly substantial bugs that we already know about, I'll withhold my vote. If RC2 ends up getting released as-is, we should be sure to change the fix version field on that JIRA to be correct. -- Aaron T.
