I agree that the long-promised upgrade of t-h.o to Trac 0.12 that has not
yet happened is blocking many of the ideas that are floating around in the
community to improve how one can work with t-h.o. And I appologize for any
inconvenience this causes.

I was hoping that my schedule changes during summer such that I'll have
more spare time left for working on t-h.o, but it didn't. Same in autumn.
And just the other day my wife and I signed the contract to buy a house -
it's great news for us, but this "project" will eat up all of my spare
time during the upcoming months until at least summer 2011. In other
words: I will still be available for administrative tasks such as handling
adoption requests or granting SVN write access to users, but I
unfortunately won't be able to take care of migrating t-h.o to Trac 0.12
during the upcoming months.

My hope is that we will find one or more volunteer(s) who would be willing
to work on the migration. This also includes outstanding improvements
required for the TracHacksPlugin, which I was not able to finish yet. The
volunteer(s) will get full SSH access to the (virtual) server that
trac-hacks.org is running on as well as to the PostgreSQL database used
for the site. I'll try my best to provide all required
information/documentation in a timely manner and will try to give support
either by e-mail or via IRC.

If your interested, please speak up and feel free to raise any questions
you may have. Same goes if you have other ideas or suggestions how this
problem could be resolved.

Bye, Mike
