Summary0024907: JSON-format change/news export
Description

Low-priority feature request, as followup to 0021837: Text-based change log.

Instead of just supporting HTML copy and paste, it would be neat if Mantis also had support for some form of parseable changelog format. Specifically for the purposes of project release tracking.
e.g. http://fossil.include-once.org/freshcode/wiki/releases.json (nothing like a standard, just an informal scheme).

Naturally most Mantis trackers would just have commit logs. But you know, that's still better than no changelog at all.
OTOH it's perhaps best suited to associate release/maturity tags to version numbers. (Something a text based changelog never could.)

TagsNo tags attached.

I am not sure if I completely understand what you want, but output of issues in JSON format is possible by using the REST API.
e.g. you could create a filter for all issues where Fixed in version is set to a certain version and use the API to get all issues in JSON format.

Feel free to reopen and provide some more information if your request is not covered by the REST API.
