§5.2: For epics that were originally planned for release X, e.g., R4, and that were started, but could not be completed, please keep the original "fix version" field, i.e., “R4-Bronze” and add to that the release label "fix version" for release X+1, e.g., R5-Cherry. This way we know that it is continued (left-over) work (after this the item will have two "fix versions"). We know the exact leftover content from the user stories that are mapped to the Epic, but not yet done. You could also add a summary of post-R4 leftovers into the description of the epic item. Note that this way the item will show up automatically in X+1 planing. Items that were originally planned for a release X, but were not even started yet simply (1) mark with the label ""movedoutofbronzeR4" (related "movedoutofbronzeR4" filter) and (2) move to the next release by removing the old value in the "fix version" field and replace it with the new plan, i.e., the label for X+1 if that's very likely the plan, or ZZZ_future if it is not yet clear when the item will be picked up again.
