The former. Is Mantis not robust enough to cope with both?

But upon doublechecking my iconbar, I find I'm wrong. I'm using "3.1
(Dev Cl #1718)" on this Iyonix. Must be one of my other machines
where I have 3.2 -- will check.

Glad to hear that.


This is first time I've used Mantis. Submitted occasional bug report
in the past on Sourceforge (which was not always straightforward,
using Netsurf; I think I recall that that's why you switched).

Info expected by Mantis in some fields was not obvious.
Is the best course then to leave such fields blank and just make sure
the freeform fields include all relevant info?
