Why Trac?

Whilst we planned to use Launchpad as the main development-support tool, we needed to supplement this with a Wiki since LP doesn't include one yet (there are many requests to have this gap filled).

We need the Wiki for:

• Blueprints development
• Developer documentation
• User documentation (in time)

Trac is an excellent development-support tool with integrated Wiki, Bugtracker & Roadmap/Milestones.
The focus of the project at this point in time is one on development, so choosing a Wiki to meet this seems the most appropriate

Once we get to User documentation, then perhaps we should switch to Dokuwiki, as per the current Sahana:

• ​http://www.dokuwiki.org/dokuwiki

Another option could be MoinMoin to keep the Python/WSGI infrastructure instead of adding PHP:
