About Trac - (from the Trac website)

Trac is an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system for software development projects. Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software project management. The mission; to help developers write great software while staying out of the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a team's established development process and policies.

It provides an interface to Subversion, an integrated Wiki and convenient report facilities.

Trac allows wiki markup in issue descriptions and commit messages, creating links and seamless references between bugs, tasks, changesets, files and wiki pages. A timeline shows all project events in order, making getting an overview of the project and tracking progress very easy.

What Trac provides:

• An integrated system for managing software projects
• A built in Wiki
• A Web-based issue/bug tracker
• An interface to the Subversion revision control system
• A templating system to change your Trac site's look and feel
