Hi Everyone, This is the fourth alpha release for Mantis 1.1.0. It is likely to be the last alpha. The next release is planned to be an rc1 release with which we will branch the code and implement a feature freeze. This release has more than 100 features and bug fixes including addition of MantisConnect SOAP API, Twitter integration, permalink filters, MediaWiki integration, custom relationships, more reporting in summary page, project info page, 6 security fixes and a lot of other fixes and improvements. It is a recommended upgrade for all 1.1.0aX installations.
For Mantis instances that use non-latin characterset, there is no automated upgrade path for data already in the database. Hence, the following wiki page guides you through the upgrade process. Please backup before you attempt to upgrade. It is also recommended to test the upgrade process on a backup instance rather than the live one. http://www.mantisbt.org/wiki/doku.php/mantisbt:upgrade_to_utf8 I would like to take this chance to announce three new services: 1. Mantis Blog - http://www.mantisbt.org/blog/ The blog will be used for news and updates relating to new features. The old news feature on the home page will be phased out and replaced by the blog. Users are encouraged to subscribe to the blog news feed. 2. Mantis Twitter - http://twitter.com/mantisbt Twitter will be used for keeping Mantis users (followers of Mantis twitter) updated with all issues that are resolved in the bug tracker and manual updates that are added relating to releases, etc. If you have a Twitter account, it is recommend that you follow "mantisbt" Twitter account. 3. Mantis Job Board - http://mantisbt.edgeio.net/ There is now a Mantis Job Board that allows the Mantis Community to post and find job posts. The cost for posting a job is $30 per month. The latest jobs also show up on Mantis web pages via the Job Board widget.
