[jira] [Updated] (HADOOP-11723) automate and markdownify changelog and release notes

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-11723?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Allen Wittenauer updated HADOOP-11723:
--------------------------------------
    Attachment: HADOOP-11723-00.patch

-00: 
* Initial commit
* This is like my first real code in python. It shows.  (I'd rather do this in perl, but I know what kind of reaction that would have...)

These scripts query JIRA and generate markdown files.  The formatting has been changed in quite a few ways:

* Tables, tables everywhere
* Release note only contain issues with release notes instead of all of them
* non-ASCII characters are kept in UTF-8 instead of turned into HTML-compliant encoding
* release notes can be formatted in markdown, alleviating a ton of the mess in the previous versions
* Incompatible patches are called out if they lack release notes in the generated file
* probably other things that I'm forgetting since i've been using these for months now.

I've got some github hosted runs for various versions here: https://github.com/aw-altiscale/hadoop-release-metadata/

It's fun to compare vs. what is currently generated, esp for release notes.
