[RFC] Removing 200XXXXX versions from Bugzilla

[Austin English]

Howdy all,

I'd like to remove the old 200XXXXX from Bugzilla, and replace them
with a pre-0.9 version instead. My reasoning is that it's obnoxious to
have to find the latest release in the middle of the list (or type it
in to find it), but if we removed all the 200XXXXX versions, it would
be the second to last (next to -unknown).

For that matter, I'd be okay with merging everything pre-1.0, but I'm
mostly concerned about the 200XXXXX versions.

Comments would be appreciated.

Yes, please. People have been asking for this for years.

This is done. I had to use 0.9-pre to get bugzilla to sort it properly though.
