Diferent workflow for diferent categories

Has anyone configured mantis up to have a different workflow for different categories?

What I want to do is to have, say, two categories
1) Live bug fix
2) internal development

For the Live category, a full workflow needs to be followed, taking the bug from e.g.
new -> accepted -> assigned -> development -> test -> release -> closed

For the internal dev category though, it would be more like
new -> development -> closed
as this would just really be a place to put stuff that we don't want to lose track of.

If you have done it, how?

Thanks everyone.
Tom

You can customize the workflow according to the projects but not the categories.

Can you tell me how to do this - whereabouts in the manual is the information even?
Thanks.

Browse the Manage link, then Manage Configuration then Workflow Transitions.

Thanks for the help - I hadn't noticed that any of those menus were dependant on the currently selected project.
