Add version 2.9.2 to support forum version drop-down list

Please add 2.9.2 to the drop-down list available when creating a new thread on the WordPress.org support forums.

Would it be possible to go so far as to extend that to creating the dropdown options in a more dynamic fashion and simply pull the current release version from a doc or similar? It would avoid any need for such requests as this to ever need exist(and wouldn't it make sense?).

How to do that, i'm sure there's a billion ways.. read the major , minor and build numbers from a text doc or url and create the list more on the fly, in opposition to manually adding versions one at a time, ad nauseum.

Just a suggestion...

Why not have it be a text field, rather than a drop down? Yes, some people will incorrectly enter their versions, but it's less update work. We already have other.

Take a look at the "visit" dropdown box shown on ...
http://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser
Could that be looked at as an example, say grab the tags group and filter out X number of older tags that obviously won't be receiving support any more.

NOTE: The forum does actually have a text field option, if you choose "Other", it appears beside the version dropdown for a value to be entered.

Is anyone able to sort this? The lack of the pull-down option for current versions is causing confusion ​http://wordpress.org/support/topic/394990?replies=5#post-1502909 and you can safely bet that if one person has moaned about it, 10 have experienced the problem and not moaned..

Thanks for letting us know. Sorry it took so long to fix.

We'll look into automating this.
