There is actually an alternative the release managers tend to follow. They 
simply move all the unresolved tickets to the next version blindly. This 
happens around a release day and I get a dozen of JIRA notifications saying 
that a ticket assigned to version X was rescheduled to version Y.

Anyway, we cannot force a single contributor such as the release manager to be 
responsible for this. This should be a collaborative process established 
between Ignite committers.

However, regardless of the chosen process those who are going to asses new 
tickets have to look them up first. And here is a rule of “setting a ticket to 
the latest version” might be one of the best options.
