-= Trac Main Features
+If you are part of a development project (notably software development) and need to keep track of your issues, milestones and artefacts, and additionally want to keep these in-house - ie not hosted on third-party cloud solutions - then Trac is for you.
 
-This page describes some of the main features of Trac and how it can help manage your project better.
+There are many other novel ways in which Trac is used, for example as a [CookBook/Configuration/DocumentManagement document management system] or when performing [CookBook/Configuration/RequirementsManagement requirements management].
+
+Because Trac is licensed under BSD, the platform can be customised to fit within your group workflow. This can be done either through configuration options (TracIni), the installation of [PluginList plugins] or under-the-hood development.

  * This page would be a '''great''' help for people needing to pick an issue tracking system out of the myriad available.
  * Well, I read this, and it did not help me with my question at all: "Could Trac be useful for me and my Projects?"
-   - so true, this page eventually needs a ''total conversion''.
  * I just want to know when one trac can connect to more than one svn repository. thanks!
