My company also has a need for a project hierarchy within Trac. But I must agree with Jeff Hammel's comment. The core of Trac should be as it is a minimalist approach but allow a third party program, plug in or whatever to upgrade Trac easily to a more multi project environment.
But I have not looked into the current answer of creating multiple Trac environments. In my opinion if Trac could be upgraded with a simple plug in to allow a simple project hierarchy within one Trac environment, this would make Trac much more powerful and desirable. -- __________________________________________________________________ Eric Research and Development OEM Controls Inc.
