​Pasting what I mentioned in #fx-team​

Regarding FFx::Extension Compatibility componen
​t.
​
702 bugs total, 282 of which are not marked against a particular version
​. There are ​
11 in FFx 44, 10 in FFx 45, 9 in FFx 46, 7 in FFx 47, 3 in FFx 48
​, ​
1 tracking FFx 47
​, ​
and only 44 bugs since the first of the year

I'd like to get those into the right component, and make a decision
​ on disposing ​
​of ​
the rest?
