Link to "current" doc

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please provide a link to the "current" Javadoc.

http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/current/

which would point to (as of April 2013):

http://hamcrest.org/JavaHamcrest/javadoc/1.3/

I don't quite understand the use for this.  Do you not want to link to the 
JavaDoc for the specific version of Hamcrest that you are using?  I don't 
believe that it is standard practice to have a floating link for JavaDoc.

Perhaps you could give some more details of your use-case?

Instead of just increasing the dependency version, one also has to remember to 
update the Javadoc Link too.

Fair enough.

I'll have to look into this, as we host the JavaDoc on gh-pages and I'd rather 
introduce a symlink if possible, rather than copying the entire directory.

If you have the time to investigate whether this is possible, that would speed 
me up.
