[community-group] Permanent URL to the latest published version (#376)

samiamdesigns has just created a new issue for https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group:

== Permanent URL to the latest published version ==
### Before starting

- [x] I have searched [existing issues](https://github.com/design-tokens/community-group/issues) and there is not already an open issue on the subject.

### Summary



I'd love a perminant URL that always redirects to the most current published version to eliminate the manual effort of updating it across touchpoints. 

Thanks for all you do! (: 

### Version

Third Editor’s Draft

### Problem & motivation

Today when I link to "the current version of the spec" from an internal document for a client or a public facing blog, I am using a URL with a slug that is specific to the version controlled snapshot of the spec when I grabbed the link. 

The problem with that is the URL will break with the next release. This means I either have to create a tracking system across all mentions and try to manually update, or deal with the broken links. Either way, this is less than ideal for situations where I am not referencing something specific to the content in the spec, but the spec itself. 

p.s. your github form only lists the draft versions of the spec and it is a required field, so my answer is not correct!
