Issue Types are easy to understand, but not so easy to explain.
I usally use examples like "Booking Room" and "Feature" and explain in a longer run the differences in workflow and needed informations - screens.
The most short explaination I found: Issue Types are types of processes.
But does that fit? Does it explain the whole meaning of Issue Types?
