José Valim 9145545d4c Require Erlang/OTP 20+ 2018-07-12 12:12:00 +02:00
Eksperimental 55a9c0f46d Standardize use of Erlang, OTP and Erlang/OTP names (#7618)
This touches only messages directed to the end user,
so comments are ignored.

This is important, specially for newcomers, who may be confused
by the interchangeable use of Erlang and OTP.

The expressions used consistenly across the documentation are:
- Erlang/OTP version
- Erlang/OTP 20+
- Erlang/OTP release,
- Erlang/OTP documentation
- Erlang process
- Erlang project
- Erlang's error logger
- Erlang log message
- OTP application
- OTP behaviour
