Please don't re-open closed bugs that are included in releases, since that messes up Jira's change log for the release. Bugs normally transition from Open to Resolved/Fixed, then to Closed when a release is made. It's okay to re-open a bug whose fix has not yet been released, but it is generally better to create a new bug in this case too.

Ideally I could modify the Jira permissions so that non-administrators cannot transition bugs from Closed to Open and are forced to instead start a new bug, but that does not appear to be possible.
