+== Tips ==
+
+=== Serving static content ===
+
+If `tracd` is the only webserver used for the project, 
+it can also be used to distribute static content 
+(tarballs, Doxygen documentation, etc.)
+
+This static content should be put in the `$TRAC_ENV/htdocs` folder,
+and is accessed by URLs like `<project_URL>/chrome/site/...`.
+
+Example: given a `$TRAC_ENV/htdocs/software-0.1.tar.gz` file,
+the corresponding relative URL would be `/<project_name>/chrome/site/software-0.1.tar.gz`, 
+which in turn can be written using the relative link syntax
+in the Wiki: `[/<project_name>/chrome/site/software-0.1.tar.gz]` 
+
+The development version of Trac supports a new `htdocs:` TracLinks 
+syntax for the above. With this, the example link above can be written simply 
+`htdocs:software-0.1.tar.gz`.
