I signed in with GitLab using my GitHub account (where may user name is @genericptr). Does that mean simply file a report with the "summary" field containing "genericptr"? I guess this process is automated. I have a number of open reports I'd like transferred over.

Does this mean the Mantis reporter is going be shut down or are users simply encouraged to not post new reports there?
