dear website people!

at the page "./where.html" in the section "FreeBSD 11.0-CURRENT" is a
link "Release Notes". the link is referring
"./relnotes/CURRENT/relnotes/article.html". but the title of this page
is "FreeBSD 12.0-CURRENT Release Notes" and is showing "Last modified on
2016-07-08 13:29:47Z by skreuzer.".

probably visitors - like me - are wondering.
maybe you can a add a new section for freebsd 12 (current). or you can
link to a "more correctly" page for example "FreeBSD 11.0-STABLE Release
Notes" [0]. (i know that this is a upcoming page also.)

when freebsd 10 was upcoming there was just a link to
"./releases/index.html". [1] (but there was no entry for the upcoming
release.)

maybe minor changes are needed on other pages too. (freebsd 11 will be
released in 6 weeks and a lot of links will change probably.)

cheers!
(and sorry for my horrible english.)

There is a problem in BETA1, so I intentionally did not update these
parts of the website yet. I know it's not intuitive yet, I apologize.

I also did not communicate this after realizing an issue with 11.0-BETA1
which is also my fault.

Once BETA2 is ready, the relevant pages will be updated.

Sorry for the confusion.

Glen
