Hi José

The links to the Elixir Syntax Reference and the Unicode Syntax in the
release notes on GH seem to be broken.

Cheers,
Lars

Thank you! Ironically the links will fix themselves once we release 1.5 officially but we most likely want to do something before.

Just to throw an idea, in Rails we optimistically redirect to the edge docs precisely to support stable links in RC release notes in a straightforward way.

The @v_edge and @s_edge locations here serve that goal:

    https://github.com/rails/rails-docs-server/blob/master/config/nginx.conf

And the links in the release notes even include the version (eg /v5.2/...) to be forward compatible. The version is ignored in the rewrite rule.
