Getting started with Mantis (1.0.0rc2), my greatest difficulty was in understanding the workflow, the meanings of the different issue fields, and how the whole package might be simplified. After several days of work I have installed and trimmed Mantis to the point where it's suitable for the smaller projects I'm working on.
As part of that, I wrote up a document about the issue life cycle, including a glossary describing the various fields and giving the (modified) value list for each. Such a document would (IMHO) be an extremely useful addition to the Mantis documentation. Feel free to use it, all or in part.
You can find it at <http://suitable.com/docs/mantisbt.html>. Is there a better way for me to submit it to the project?
