I was able to get a proof of concept going.

The hg repo that feeds pungi is just a local clone.  I'd like to hear thoughts 
on how to give trac access to our hosted git and hg and cvs repos.  Are they 
on NFS anywhere?  Also, I think I had to chown apache.apache the repo, but I 
could be wrong, I need to verify.

Authentication works through the Fedora account system, but right now it's not 
ssl.  If somebody wants to make it ssl, please do!  When I setup the pungi 
trac instance, I named 'jkeating' as the admin.  This gave me the ability to 
use the web-admin plugin of trac to finish the last mile configuration for my 
project, and would allow me to assign permissions to other folks.  I'd just 
need to know their fedora account name.

All in all I think this is pretty slick, and it wouldn't take _too_ much to 
automate in some way.  Until then we could have a project request page that 
people could propose projects and some admin could create a trac instance for 
that project for the user.  There is some work being done on a 'trac-forge' 
that would allow users to create new projects on the fly, we might be able to 
source share with that project.

Anyway, what do ya'all think?

Matthew, can you setup a CNAME hosted.fedoraproject.org -> 
publictest3.fedora.redhat.com ?  I'd like to use this proof of concept for 
pungi, and approach project leaders for mock and plague to see if they'd like 
a trac instance too.
