[mantisbt-dev] Plans for future versions?

[Daniel T. <dan...@gm...>]

Hello,

I'm new to mantis development and already wrote some mails with David 
and he told me how contribution fixes and all these things.
I already created a fork of mantisbt and committed some patches for open 
bugs.

My question now is if there are any plans for future versions? Things to 
be done? I'm a little bit unsure what to do.

What i really would like to do is adding the possibility to add custom 
skins. So adding a template engine and rewriting all pages :).
But I don't think that's really good at the moment. I think it would be 
better to start with integrating a full object oriented landing page 
(e.g. index.php) which loads sites depending on query string. Are there 
any thoughts about that?
This also would enable the possibility to add nice urls with 
apache-rewrite (and others).
After thats done it's easier to separate style and function with an 
template engine.

But as I said I'm not sure if  there is already some fork that focuses 
on that or if there are any plans on doing something.

So I'm looking forward in helping with developing.
