Scanned the release page and found a couple minor things that we might
want to fix before the final release:

1) The scala-version parameter specifies both 2.11 and 2.12. That
parameter value is used in the Maven config, so the dependency looks
like this:

  <artifactId>daffodil-japi_2.11, 2.12</artifactId>

which isn't valid. This is for java users, so that scala version
probably doesn't really matter. I propose we just go with 2.12 so java
users get the latest scala version. Note that the sbt dependency uses %%
in the dependency, so it automatically picks up the right scala verison.

2) The level 5 header (e.g. ##### header test) is really small. Maybe we
should just use bold for those, or maybe we should change the css so h5
isn't quite so small?

3) In the DFDLGeneralFormat.dfdl.xsd section , the first bullet has "was
UTC now ````". The four ticks don't show up correctly, maybe just change
that to "was UTC, now empty string or something similar?

4) The bullets for the bug numbers in the DFDLGeneralFormat.dfdlxsd
section look off--makes it look like the bugs are not related to the
bullets above them. Maybe indent those to another level, or just make it
so its part of the related bullet?

5) Missing a "summary" in the top parameters. This will show up on the
/releases page when we change released to true.
