OK, I see. Trac is read-only then, correct? If it is entirely read-only, then yes, I can use whatever I want for a client and protocol.
I guess I got a little confused by all of the folks who are up in arms about this issue. I personally don't see that big of a deal with it now that I understand it. Having the Trac server run on the same server as my SVN instance doesn't give me a drawback at all. I have the repo stored across NFS, as well as the Trac project for that matter, and everything is working beautifully. I suppose the one thing that could be sticky is the different authentication mechansims for viewing the repo contents. That should be manageable though. Thanks a lot for your feedback guys. I really appreciate it and find that each day I spend with Trac, I love it more and more!
