Hi folks,

Looking at doing the final tasks for the 4.8.2 release and stuck on
the docker bit. It's not that I don't see what has been done before,
but more that what is there is so so wrong.

Take 4.8.1 release for example. The tarball for that release was cut
from b4a2b1, yet the tag for that release is bf6149. bf6149 doesn't
exist on branch-4.8.

Instead, after b4a2b1 is cb8b76 which reverts 4.8.1 to 4.8.1-SNAPSHOT.
So versions are going backwards in the branch.

My bigger concern for now is the docker + tag bit. The tag should
represent exactly what we released as artifacts.

Who has control of the docker autobuild settings?  From reading the
docks, you can set a regex and use a capture group to set the version.
So for docker we could have additional tags, docker/release-4.8.2,
which lives on the branch-4.8. Another alternative is to move the
dockerfile into a different repo.

Anyhow, for now I'm going to set the tag to what was actually released.

-Ivan
