That's a point, however there's also the belief that you should use the 
right tool for the right task -- in this case, the Trac wiki is very 
nicely integrated into the rest of Trac. The problem is that you need 
to really have a clear boundary between what goes into the Wiki and 
what goes into the CMS.

Okay, I'm convinced!

Request for comments:
About Trac + website - do we want to have it integrated in the main 
look of the site, or do we want it to be a disjoint part?  I really 
like how the Django guys have done it at http://www.djangoproject.com
