Post by abma »

and only 228 are open! ;-)


It took ~13 years to reach 6000 bug reports on our bug tracker, the first was in November 2005.


thanks to all bug reporters and bug fixers! :-)

A note about closed issues. It's annoying that people cannot add comments on them without reopening.

Do we ever want to upgrade to Mantis BT 2.x? Looks kinda cleaner.

In this case, those looks make it less annoying to use more functional and add features.

Really useful features?

What features are removed like the location tag?

+ unimportant tool
+unimportant tool
+unimportant tool
- that one little removal breaking the workflow

So this boils down to.. I don't know, didn't bother to sum it up and shiny shit is always best?

So how much ransom do you want to get the original forb back who knew to be careful about such administrative costly little details cause it was part of the job?

Hey Pics, for what is mostly an administrative tool, UX (shiny) matters. You want people to report and understand the state of the project? Why not use the best tools there are?

PS: I just posted this as a random comment, I don't think it's a pressing matter - it's just that most people might not be aware of the upgrade - just as I wasn't
