Create Binary Tarball as a helper for Users

...

Create a final binary tarball using the minimal and full tarballs: 

• Create a top-level directory called apache-tez-{x.y.z}-bin
• Untar the contents of the minimal tarball into this directory.
• Copy the full tarball into the directory under apache-tez-{x.y.z}-bin/share/ and name the file tez.tar.gz 
• Copy the LICENSE* files and NOTICE file from the full tarball and replace the files under apache-tez-{x.y.z}-bin/ which came from the minimal tarball. 
• If the version is higher than 0.8.x, use the mvn javadoc command to generate the xml-based config documentation and copy the files under apache-tez-{x.y.z}-bin/conf/ with a .template suffix.
• Tar the top-level directory and do the necessary signing as well as the checksum creation as done for the src tarball. 

Upload Artifacts for Release Vote

The artifacts ( source tarball, binary tarball, checksums etc) need to be copied over to https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tez/. ( This is an SVN repo where the release artifacts need to be committed to ). The artifacts should be created under a directory with the release number and RC number.
