 The Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) is a set of concepts and best practices for Information Technology Services Management (ITSM), Information Technology (IT) development and IT operations.

 ISO/IEC 20000, like its BS 15000 predecessor, was originally developed to reflect best practice guidance contained within the ITIL framework

 For dsolajic : bug -> incident, severity -> impact, urgency -> priority (actualy urgency and impact give priority through Eisenhower matrix)) Priorities are usualy fixed on low, medium and high.

+===== Major Update on Mantis =====
   * Defining Service Level Agreement (response, resolution times for incidents, service hours, service window, working/non working days, holidays, ...)
 Alerts on incidents close to resolution time, etc. AND Configurable reporting

   - a data structure to determine your SLA. Each row of SLA can be seen as a periodicity and a whereclause (number of issue to be treated regarding the Agreement)

+===== Plugins & scripts related =====
+TODO: Add other links
+Apparently, you might consider submitting a Git repository with your plugin to https://gitter.im/mantisbt/mantisbt
+==== Solution for reporting via E-Mail ====
+It's a script for receiving bug reports through a POP3 E-Mail account.
+It is based on the file bug_report.php and works this time

+==== Solution for support of Service Level Agreement (SLA) ====
+When an incident is created in the Mantis, depends on the priority the mantis can assign a resolution time automatically.

+===== Key concept =====
+==== ITIL Incident  ====
+It's a very interesting concept for an easy classification of an incident
+  * Incident
+Any event which is not part of the standard operation of a IT service and which causes, or may cause, an interruption to, or a reduction in the quality of that service. (in ITIL v3 Service Request are not Incident, but Service Request  are treated similarly than incident)
+  * Impact
+Impact describes the measure of the business criticality of an incident. Impact is often based on the extent to which an incident leads to distortion of agreed or expected Service Levels. (Ie: loss of revenue, loss of business reputation, breach of legal constraints, etc..)
+   * Urgency
+Measure of the business criticality of an incident or problem based on the business needs of the customer. Urgency is the speed required for the resolution
+  * Priority
+Priority is the sequence in which an incident or problem needs to be resolved, based on impact and urgency. And it serves to identify an acceptable period for the implementation of an action

+Because of Mantis is not very oriented to that topic (in 2010), you should find better ITIL compliant software above
