Hi all,
     With several important fixes get merged last week, I've created a new =
release candidate (RC2) for Apache Hadoop 2.8.0.

     This is the next minor release to follow up 2.7.0 which has been relea=
sed for more than 1 year. It comprises 2,919 fixes, improvements, and new f=
eatures. Most of these commits are released for the first time in branch-2.

      More information about the 2.8.0 release plan can be found here: http=
s://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/HADOOP/Hadoop+2.8+Release

      Please note that RC0 and RC1 are not voted public because significant=
 issues are found just after RC tag getting published.

      The RC is available at: http://home.apache.org/~junping_du/hadoop-2.8=
.0-RC2

      The RC tag in git is: release-2.8.0-RC2

      The maven artifacts are available via repository.apache.org at: https=
://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachehadoop-1056

      Please try the release and vote; the vote will run for the usual 5 da=
ys, ending on 03/20/2017 PDT time.

Thanks,

Junping
