That said, I'm in favor now of adding the unreleased versions for -alpha, -beta, and -rc, and flipping to the major/minor on resolution. We should also codify this in our release lifecycle wiki article so we don't have to revisit the topic. I think this solution is compatible with what everyone on the thread has said thus far, so if nobody has any major concerns, later today I will: 1. Add a 4.1-alpha, 4.1-beta, and 4.1-rc FixVersion (unreleased) 2. Update fixversion on tickets that are blocking each release respectively based on our lifecycle process 3. Update our kanban board to have swimlanes for each phase of the release 4. Update the lifecycle cwiki w/this process for future releases ~Josh On Tue, May 10, 2022, at 2:23 AM, Mick Semb Wever wrote: > > Why do you need to change anything post release?
