        Also remember, that CouchDB uses the Review-Then-Commit (RTC) model
        of code collaboration. Positive feedback is represented +1 from 
committers
        and negative is a -1. The -1 also means veto, and needs to be addressed
        to proceed. Once there are no objections, the PR can be merged by a
        CouchDB committer.

   ## Overview
   
   I've made a few issues, but have noticed that specifying the current latest 
version in the appropriate field is not possible. This PR fixes it.
   
   I see some alternative solutions/improvements:
   
   1. Change it from a dropdown list to a free form line edit
   
      Dropdown is more user friendly but more difficult to maintain on GitHub.
   2. Add adding the version to the template to version release instructions 
for maintainers.
   
      If there isn't currently documentation for releasing new versions of 
couchdb, it could perhaps be added. It should document all steps needed to make 
a new release.
   3. Keep the template as is, but automate updating the list of versions
   
      GitHub doesn't support dynamic issue templates to my knowledge, so this 
would require some bot automatically commiting the fix, which looks like more 
trouble than it's worth.
