MINOR: Add doap.rdf file for release tracking
#3001

What's the benefit of adding this file? Usually we need to report a new release via https://reporter.apache.org/addrelease.html?parquet |
The Community Development committee (ComDev) maintains a website projects.apache.org which lists all ASF projects, and some basic details about them. These details are derived from DOAP (Description Of A Project) file that is maintained by each PMC. This file is also referenced elsewhere, when such data is needed. When it's missing, the information can sometimes be sourced from other places, but sometimes this will result in your project being missing from various lists. For example, the listing of projects by category, or by programming language (https://projects.apache.org/projects.html?language) does not list your project, and thus you will not be discoverable by people looking for a project to get involved in. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Is this file required? My concern is that we will add an extra work to the release process and end up with leaving it out of sync.
Rationale for this change
To track the releases. See https://projects.apache.org/create.html for details
