Well the fixVersion field can have multiple values. So I would say that
for segment we have 2 or 3 targets for solving issues.

1) stuff that needs to be solved before oak 1.6
2) stuff that needs to be solved for a specific major segment version;
let's say 1.0
3) stuff that needs to be solved by the next segment release; ie blockers.

I would suggest then

- Rename version 1.6 as "Oak 1.6"
- Assign such version to segment versions that *have to* be solved and
included by 1.6
- create a "Segment 1.0" version and give it to what you think should go
in 1.0. IMO Segment 1.0 does not mean Oak 1.6. It may be the same but I
see the two very different.

Thoughts?
