I didn't close JIRAs after the 3.0.0-alpha1 or alpha2 releases since
closing makes the JIRAs read-only. This makes it more annoying to backport
to older releases and for concurrent releases in general.

I believe I asked about this on dev-yetus a while back. I'd prefer that the
presence of the fix version be sufficient to indicate whether a JIRA is
included in a release branch. Yetus requires that the JIRA be resolved as
"Fixed" to show up, which is why we are in our current situation.
