Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-5939:
------------------------------------
We could perhaps call it a `lenient` mode or something. `dryrun` probably
implies something slightly different (if I understand the goal of the JIRA).
> Add a dryrun option to release.py

> It would be great to add a `dryrun` feature to `release.py` so that it can be
> used to test changes to the scripts etc. At the moment you need to make sure
> all JIRAs are closed for the release, have no uncommited changes etc, which
> is a bit of a hassle when you just want to test a change you've made to the
> script. There may be other things that need to be skipped, too
