What would you make the default?  Whichever you do, it will be wrong
for some bugs.  Maybe 3.3 makes more sense, since users of 3.4 dev
builds presumably can be trusted to override the default themselves.

In any case, there is no admin setting for default versions.  The
closest I've seen is setting versions via this QA form;

http://www.openoffice.org/qa/issue_handling/submission_gateway.html

I think adding a &version=foo to the submissions would set a default.
But in general that gateway form is in bad shape.  It is hardcoded a
lot of legacy default assignments that are incorrect.

This is a good project for someone who can give a couple of hours.

Do you know off hand which ones are missing?  Or even better, if you
enter a defect in BZ classified under www/AOO Bugzilla, that will
ensure I don't forget your request.
