JIRA versions

[Uwe Schindler <uw...@thetaphi.de>]

Hi,

When switching to branch_5x, I had to cleanup the JIRA versions, which was not so simple to do, because we had to rename several constants and other issues. I managed to "hack" JIRA to get the versions correct, but because of limited query and bulk update functionality, this is not straight forward.

Especially the version "5.0" at former time was horrible. This is why I implemented a light new versioning scheme (in fact it only was a "rename 5.0 -> Trunk"):

- Everything to be released soon at a "real version", can use a real version number (currently "5.0" or "4.10.1").
- Stuff that only goes to the trunk target should be assigned the version named "Trunk" (not "6.0"). This makes it easier to move versions around when new major's are branched/prepared. Today, suddenly again a new "6.0" appeared, I merged that to "Trunk".

It would be good to use this versioning from now on.

Uwe
