Jesse, I have no intentions of splitting hairs. Please read my first
mail and tell me where I demand the trac instance to be *completely*
open. I explicitly stated the FAmSCo setup works for me.

        If the board is afraid that the process is too open, there are
        two
        options:
      * Restrict ticket access to only board members and ticket creators
        (people can see their tickets but not others). This is the setup
        FAmSCo uses.

And to be very clear about this: I do understand that FAmSCo does not
fully open their trac. It contains *personal* data like shipping
addresses and back accounts. But this data only happens to be in their
trac *because* it is open to submit tickets by contributors.

Regards,
Christoph
