I understand where you're coming from, but this kind of absolute
requirement seems like a recipe for inaction.

It took me a little while to sort out the trac packaging, between
pulling in the upstream versions, sorting out the svn authorsfile, and
linking the various changesets to the appropriate versions.  I'm not
about to do the same work right away for every one of the python-apps
packages, which i don't know nearly as well as i know trac.

I could walk people how i've done it, if other folks are interested, but
it seems to me like having some apps migrated to the VCSes that
encourage people to work on them would be a step in the right direction,
even if it's not for all of them.

yep, i saw that, and your upload is integrated in the git repository i
pointed to.  thanks!
