Always reference bug number and mention people that spent time reporting
problems in our bugzilla. Please, add bug # and attribution into
ChangeLog. Also with version bump it's always good idea to keep previous
version to allow re-installation of previous versions in the case of
regressions.

That's rather https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332541

I agree that the bug # should be referenced, but as for removing the
old versions, that's something we usually ask people to do after
bumping packages with security issues to minimize the risk of people
installing possibly vulnerable versions.

I agree with removal but not immediately. Personally I already had
issues with another web application: it worked in my installation, but
people were unable to use it after security fix. Since having vulnerable
but working installation is better then fixed but broken, I'd rather
always kept old versions for some time. Also it's not a big problem to
have old versions in the tree since you have to specify version number
explicitly to install them...

In that case: Reopen the bug and inform us. Besides, you should only
get issues when dealing with ~arch ebuilds as they're not tested. But
that's what you get for using testing. *shrug*

 Since having
 vulnerable but working installation is better then fixed but
 broken,

No offense, but that's just naive.

 I'd rather always kept old versions for some time. 

Use a local overlay then.

 specify version number explicitly to install them...
 

You obviously haven't been in our support venues and seen what some
people are able to do...
