Online docs links for 10.0 vs 10

I think the documentation links for version 10 need attention.

The series of documentation text and links for the current releases
are 9.5, 9.6:
...
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/static/
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/

so I would have expected the new batch of releases[1]http://www.databasesoup.com/2016/05/changing-postgresql-version-numbering.html to similarly
list only major versions 10, 11:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/11/static/
...

however, the current link to the beta includes the minor release digit 10.0:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10.0/static/

(current docs don't link to minor versions like 9.6.3, so this is
counter-intuitive to me).

This comment similarly applies to the text of the links at
https://www.postgresql.org/docs and the list of versions at the top of
the online docs template where you see "This page in other versions".
I was expecting to see 10 and not 10.0 in these places.

Cheers,
-Mike

Hi!

That's a correct observation, also reported by somebody else as well. I
have fixed this now and pushed the updates to the website.

Thanks for the report!
