Victor, thanks for the pointer. I hadn't seen AnonyMantis before this. It looks similar to the old Anonymous Reports(1) except AnonyMantis is abstracted a lot further away from Mantis itself.
I guess with how detached AnonyMantis is from Mantis (using MC soap interface), it'd be nice to finish off that isolation and maintain the anonymous reports and admin approval separate from the main Mantis implementation as well. Otherwise, AnonyMantis seems like a whole lot of overhead for providing a custom anonymous reporting front end directly into a Mantis project. Hopefully I can contribute something back if I can come up with a functional solution based on AnonyMantis or other. chris 1. http://manual.mantisbt.org/manual.modifications.anonymous.reports.php Victor Boctor wrote: > Hi Chris, > > A good starting point would be AnonyMantis: > http://bleepsoft.com/anonymantis/ > > You can create a private project which is your staging area and point > AnonyMantis to it.
