    Okay, this is actually a bit more complicated than I had hoped. The
    issue is that the workflow used by the ASF JIRA does not allow for bulk
    editing for closed issues. So, our three options are:

    1) Say forget it.
    2) Re-open the "incorrect" closed issues and then close them again with
    the new fix version.
    3) Request the infra folks involved to modify or create a new workflow
    per [1].

    I'm still a fan of the change, but it appears I'm the only one to have
    complained thus far, so 1) may be a viable option. 2) we can do on our
    own. We'll just see a temporary flood of email as the issues are opened
    and then closed (maybe about 20 total). 3) seems like a better long
    term solution, but requires outside assistance that may not be granted.

    Thoughts?
