Managing the version order in JIRA
Currently the list of versions which is supposed to be kept in order (http://sling.staging.apache.org/documentation/development/release-management.html#update-jira) is already pretty long. This makes adding a new version tedious and time-consuming work because you basically need to drag&drop the new version to the right position in the list. Anyone came up with a script to automate that somehow? It seems that there is some javascript at https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-32156?focusedCommentId=674689&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-674689 which automatically sorts via JavaScript. This seems to sort only by the release dates, which is not intended for Sling (since we want to group by bundle). So one would need to adjust the script.
Thanks for your inputs on how you do that currently.

That's handy Carsten. I didn't know it was possible with multi-touch
to drag with one hand and scroll with the other (even works on a
single touch-pad for me).

Not really a short cut, but this is how I do it:
I search for the place were the version should go to and remember the
position of the page slider.
I started dragging with one hand, use the other hand on the touch pad to
quickly scroll approximately to the remembered position. Then its just a
little bit up or down scrolling and done.
I really does not take more than 15 secs :)

I also really think sorting will help a lot. Unfortunately if you rely on drag and drop only it takes much more than 15 seconds (at least for me).

Sorting helps to jump from one version to another of that module. If you
look at all issues of a version you have links to the next and the prev
version, which is really very handy.
And sorting is really not a major task, if you release you have to sort
in a single version which takes like 15 seconds. So if everyone who does
a release/adds a version does this, its really not a big deal.

I simply don't sort the versions anymore :-)
It might be worth discussion why we are sorting them and if it makes
sense to keep doing it, since it's quite a hassle with such a large
number of versions.
