    Description

      NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Server. Using JIRA Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      At the point of the installer wizards when you get to choose between creating a new JIRA installation or upgrading an existing one, please change the "Upgrade an existing JIRA installation" wording on the installers to say "Upgrade an existing JIRA version 4.3 (or later) installation".

      Reason... People upgrading from JIRA 4.0.x-4.2.x can still use these installer wizards to upgrade their JIRA installation to version 4.4.x. However, the "Upgrade an existing JIRA installation" wording issued by these installers is confusing such people when the "Upgrading JIRA Manually" procedure (at step 3.1) effectively asks them not to use it.
