The version field is for the version of the product the bug is in, it shouldn't be abused for things that aren't that. A couple of alternative approaches: 1: A new custom field with the modules/streams in it. User opens bug against component, maintainer sets the CF if required. Pros: Easy to use. Could be a multi-select if it affects multiple streams. Cons: Might not scale to a large number of module streams. Doesn't allow automated change of assignee/etc. Not easy to limit CF values to specific components. 2: Use sub-components for the modules/streams. User opens a bug against the component and the maintainer can move the bug to a module sub component if required. Pros: easy to use, automated assignee/qe/etc, easy to limit modules and streams to specific components. Unlikely to require significant change to current workflows or tools. Cons: Setting up the sub-components, this could probably be automated on the Fedora Infra side. Not multi-select so you'd need to clone bugs if you wanted to track progress for multiple-streams.
