You can view existing tickets, add comments to them and create new tickets using the corresponding buttons at the top of every page. If you want to submit a new bug or request a feature, please use the Search function first to make sure there is no ticket for this task already created.[[BR]] Anonymous access to the ticket system has been restricted due to multiple attacks of stupid spammers we've been suffering from during the last month.
