Thank you, Martijn.

As I pointed out in 
https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk8u-dev/2019-April/009113.html 
the JEP 322 version nomenclature is

"A version string is a version number, $VNUM, possibly followed by
pre-release, build, and other optional information, one of:

$VNUM(-$PRE)?\+$BUILD(-$OPT)?
$VNUM-$PRE(-$OPT)?
$VNUM(+-$OPT)?

where $PRE is a pre-release identifier (e.g., ea), $BUILD is a build
number, and $OPT is optional build information."

i.e. the anchor text should be 11.0.3-ea+6, for example, rather than 
11.0.3+6-ea.

The component after the build number, $OPT, is used to denote a series 
of releases for which an implementor offers long-term support e.g., 
11.0.2+13-LTS, rather than Early Access status of individual builds.

cheers,
