It is, however, more than just a wiki. The following section introduces its
main features.
Wiki
The wiki within Trac is used for all text and documentation throughout the
application, including its own user documentation. Since it is a wiki, no structure
is enforced and we are left to organize (and reorganize) our information as we
see fit. The wiki engine is extensible by way of macros and processors to provide
additional functionality not contained in Trac. Attachments are also supported, but
unfortunately images need to be hosted externally to Trac for the best results. There
are ways around this, but they are not perfect.
The wiki component also has version control built right in??”each saved edit of a page
results in a stored copy of that page that we can browse or revert to at any time.
Tickets
The Trac ticket system provides simple but effective issue tracking within our
project. Combined with the roadmap, tickets provide the core project management
elements of Trac, in which tickets are used to track project tasks, feature requests,
bug reports, and software support issues.
Introducing the Solution
[ 20 ]
Each issue is assigned to a person who takes responsibility for either resolving it
or reassigning it to another person.
