Thanks Junping for taking on this huge effort!

I found one tiny nit: the md5 files are not in conventional format
That is to say, 
$ cat hadoop-2.8.0.tar.gz.md5 

$ /usr/bin/md5sum /build/source/target/artifacts/hadoop-2.8.0.tar.gz
c728a090b68d009070085367695ed507  
/build/source/target/artifacts/hadoop-2.8.0.tar.gz

But a typical md5 file would have been:
c728a090b68d009070085367695ed507  hadoop-2.8.0.tar.gz

I was pretty stunned finding hadoop-2.8.0.tar.gz is a whopping 410MB binary, 
comparing to hadoop-2.7.3.tar.gz which is just 205 MB.
But later on I realized the source code hadoop-2.8.0-src.tar.gz is 33MB 
comparing to hadoop-2.7.3-src.tar.gz which is 18MB. So probably it’s the amount 
of changes made into Hadoop 2.8 makes such difference in size.
