The "do-release.sh" script asks questions about the RC being prepared,
trying to find out as much as possible automatically, and then executes
the existing scripts with proper arguments to prepare the release. This
script was used to prepare the 2.3.1 release candidates, so was tested
in that context.
The docker version runs that same script inside a docker image especially
crafted for building Spark releases. That image is based on the work
by Felix C. linked in the bug. At this point is has been only midly
tested.
I also added a template for the vote e-mail, with placeholders for
things that need to be replaced, although there is no automation around
that for the moment. It shouldn't be hard to hook up certain things like
version and tags to this, or to figure out certain things like the
repo URL from the output of the release scripts.
