Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Hi - I'm new to MantisBT. What sort of things is the Categories field intended for? I'm just concenred that if I start using it for some information I need about each issue, that I will later discover that I need it for whatever it is normally used for...

Thanks - Rowan
