What I'm supposed to do when I verify that a bug filed
against Viewer 2.0 also affects Viewer 2.0.1 ?
Should I really file a new, almost identical new ticket
for Viewer 2.0.1?
This seems to be the meaning of the "Please ONLY select
a single version" phrase that appears near the
"Affect Version" field (or not - see below)
However, this doesn't look feasible and sustainable to me:
it's time-consuming and -worst- all feedback, comments
and votes get lost.
Admittely, I never acted this way, and I always checked
more than a version when appropriate; also, my feeling
is that is the common behaviour on JIRA.
Maybe I'm just wrong about Releases and Versions? :)
maybe what the phrase actually means is that using
the same ticket for Viewer 2.0 and Viewer 2.0.1 is OK;
but if the same behaviour affects Snowglobe or other
branches, a new different ticket should be filed?
thanks in advance for clearing my mind..
