Apropos this what would you think about hosting the trac setup on the
repository along with the www/ tree?
This way patches to Trac could be submitted as well.

On a broader view I think that if possible we should store the
complete sourcecode of the website, trac and/or other components, in
the repo. The running Trac is likely to have its codebase saved in a
VCS anyway and having it in the public repo would allow patches
submission, think of plugins or custom patches to them.

I don't know how macosforge is managed, is there any obstacle (say
security concern or so) in sharing the currently running code?

Well, on the fun side Ryan still took time to properly format my wiki
syntax in the ticket so I'd say it's not too bad. ;-)
