   I will add more clarification about this PR. The only working redirect in this PR for testing is from 
   Start: http://ec2-34-219-134-42.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/versions/1.1.0/community/contribute.html
   To: http://ec2-34-219-134-42.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com/versions/1.6/community/contribute.html
   
   The redirect only works when user enter `/versions/1.1.0/community/contribute.html` from outside of mxnet website. It could be from a google search result, or type this url into the browser directly. ( check HTTP `referer` is "apache.mxnet.org" or not)
   And to prevent redirect looping, if user goes to `/versions/1.1.0` => top nav bar => community => contribute, this also goes to contribution page but redirect won't be triggered because user is coming from mxnet website.
