    10     * Using the [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracHoursPlugin TracHours plugin] (for Trac >= 0.11)
    11     * Using the [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/BudgetingPlugin BudgetingPlugin] (for Trac >= 0.12)
    12     * Using custom ticket fields (for Trac 0.9.x, 0.10)
    13     * Extending the data model  (for Trac 0.8)

    15 The patches are unofficial, please do not report bugs through the Trac ticket system. Instead contact the trac user mailing list or [mailto:steffenp@gmx.de Steffen Pingel].

    21 The [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TimingAndEstimationPlugin Timing And Estimation Plugin] works much the same as the Trac .9.x custom fields approach, except that it should be easier to install and provides a bit more in depth reporting.  It also contains a ticket change daemon that will allow you to add time and have it sum the total up.  The [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TimingAndEstimationPlugin project page] contains links to a [https://trac.acceleration.net/TestForTimingAndEstimation demo version] so you can see it in action to decide if it is right for you , as well as bug reporting links.
    22 
    23 The [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracHoursPlugin TracHours plugin] provides a different approach to time tracking (for Trac 0.11 only).  Instead of adding hours via a ticket field, separate views are available for adding and reporting hours.
    24 
    25 The [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/BudgetingPlugin BudgetingPlugin] provides splitting the work-effort for a ticket in several smaller pieces. You can configure tasks (for example implementation, documentation, etc.) and assign users.
