Subject: Re: Ruby's Trac Alternative

I have an experimental version of collaboa I've been hacking on this
week that adds a wiki and timeline support.

I plan on giving the patch to add both of these back to the collaboa
and if they don't want it, I'll maintain it seperately. I adore the
wiki integration with the ticket and SCM system. But I didn't want to
have to hack python when I wanted to change something. Collaboa is
pretty simple and adding the wiki and timeline have been pretty simple
so far.
