But "best tool" here needs to take into consideration the other  
MacPorts web apps. Right now, MPWA and the website use MySQL. It would  
help share data in the long run if all systems pulled from the same  
database. I don't think its worth the effort to integrate the Postgres  
DB that backs Trac, but we can at least try to make MPWA, Portmill,  
and the website share some common data. That of course means the other  
apps could be ported to CouchDB if thats a better tool overall.
