Summary	0006051: Possibility of snapshots and specific time priods for bug summaries
Description	During the usage of mantis, my manager requested a lot of different analyses of the bug situation. It becomes more and more important to show the change of new and resolved bug during a specific time period. e.g. example for specific time periods what was the situation of bugs at date xy. since then, how many bugs have been resolved and how many new bugs have been reported until now? The severityis important. Example for snapshots what was the bug status at date xy? Here it is important to show the status of the bugs at that time. So bugs, that are resolved today, maybe had a dofferent status at the requested date. Also, the severity is important. Those statistics should be diplayed in graphs, too.

Whilst it would be feasible to useful to submit places where bug history could be improved. So it would be a case of either: a) making an analytical plugin that stores snapshots of status b) rebuilding/building reports based on bug history data at which point, it woudl be useful to have individual specific examples of what would be required as new work items.
