Concerning Mantis. Take a look at Seaside people, who using a
code.google to track issues.
Choosing and migrating to new issue tracker could help , but only if
we will be sure that we will not end up with a tons of reported bugs
which no-one cares to fix and review.

One of idea to make use of Mantis more convenient is to create a bug
fixes hubs and collect all fixes in them, so instead of doing
search/filtering on issues by category, you simply open a report named
'fixes included into Squak X.Y.unstable', where everyone could see a
progress and ask to test/include own fix.
