Description

These are actually trivial, but I called this minor because the effect is to make the release look not-quite-finished.

1. The Release Notes (http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/codec/RELEASE-NOTES.txt) proclaim: "The Apache Commons Codec team is pleased to announce the commons-codec-1.11-SNAPSHOT release!"

The "-SNAPSHOT", of course, should be removed.

2. The changes report (https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-codec/changes-report.html) has this index entry for 1.11:

Version	Date	Description
1.11	2017-MM-DD	Feature and fix release.

I wholeheartedly approve of the date format, but feel that more specificity of the date is required.

Same applies to the corresponding heading, Release 1.11 – 2017-MM-DD.
