Versioning parent projects in JIRA ?

To summarize : we would have JPAR, JPAR2, and JPAR3. A JIRA task like
"bump dependencies" would be "duplicated" to JPAR2 and JPAR3. Versions
in JPAR2 and JPAR3 would be the same as the version string in the
respective Maven POMs. Each major version will get its own JPARx
project in JIRA.
