Hi Tommy,

We've collapsed the version numbers in the BSA, but not in Bugzilla
yet. Joel suggested that we start with the BSA as a test, and then
slowly reduce the number available in Bugzilla on FDO.

One option available to us in Bugzilla is to hide certain versions on
the New Bug page, but to still make them available when editing a bug.
This would allow us to simplify the number of versions available for a
new report, but then allow us to continue using the version field as a
special marker for "First version in which the bug appears".
