I have to say I agree with a lot of your points. In the past, I've
expressed similar opinions on the mailing list and in IRC; most
specifically that we should release sooner instead of adding more to
the release. I also agree with the bloat/useless API's, specifically
the whole context/security thing which I have looked at but haven't
been able to grasp. Also, one of the important reasons I stopped
maintaining the community buildbot for Trac was that the unit tests
were always failing. Lastly, in my experience it's largely impossible
to follow the development. I peruse the Timeline through RSS and track
all the checkins from there, but there is often too little context to
follow the high-level reasoning behind the changes. I'm assuming that
some of that is discussed on IRC and I started idling in the channel,
but there's just too much noise/friendly talk/discussion to keep up.

I hope the Trac development can refocus, get the communication on the
mailing list so more people can contribute, and that we can release
0.11 soon.

Cheers,

Manuzhai
