[jbosstools-dev] I have archived the JBIDE 4.3.0 and JBDS 9.0.0 releases in JIRA

[Nick Boldt]

"If you can come up with a reason why we would like to give up being
able to use versions in
affects-version and not be able to see what our release and roadmap
history have been let me hear it."

While a user could definitely set affectsVersion = 4.3.2.Beta2 instead
of 4.3.0.Final even if they're using 4.3.0 to log an issue, I'm not
saying I'd recommend forcing that behaviour.

So... nope. No reasons come to mind.
