please read http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/BoostSubversion
This TRAC software looks quite interesting.

Please tell me - do you plan to use it for boost development, once boost switches to SVN (like bugtracking, which is currently done on sourceforge)?
Yes. At some point in the (near) future, we will migrate all of the bug reports from SourceForge over to Trac, so that we get Subversion/ Trac integration. For example, when committing a fix for a Trac ticket, one can write "Fixes #39" in the Subversion log message. Subversion/Trac will automagically close ticket #39 and cross- reference that Subversion commit with the Trac ticket.
Do you maybe plan to switch the boost homepage into it?
Not to Trac, no. Trac is great for collaboration among developers, but it does not make a very appealing user-centric site. There are other plans for the Boost web site, but I'm not in charge of that.
I'm asking because I am currently looking for something to use for the development of my application.
Trac is *wonderful*. Very highly recommended. - Doug
