@nazunalika corrected me that we do have information on dist tags already. Let's take a pass at the build page and ensure it's accurate.

I'd also like to see if we can/should restrict this further in Peridot itself. We do some checking for if the project's dist tag has elN where N is the project's configured Major Version, but, it doesn't enforce that it starts with this, just that it contains it. Of course we can't make this too restrictive, but, we'll discuss that on the Peridot side.
