Trac 0.9.6 Release Notes
July 6, 2006
We're proud to present our latest release - Trac 0.9.6.
Trac is an enhanced wiki and issue tracking system, integrated with Subversion, for software development projects. Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software project management. Our mission is simple; to help developers write great software while staying out of the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a team's established development process and policies.
Trac allows wiki markup in issue descriptions and commit messages, creating links and useful structure between bugs, tasks, changesets, files and wiki pages. A timeline view presents all project events in chronological order, making tracking progress or getting an overview of a project easy.

About the vulnerability
The discovered vulnerability requires docutils to be installed and enabled. Systems that do not have docutils installed or enabled are not vulnerable. As of this version version 0.3.9 or greater of docutils is required for using reStructuredText markup in Trac.
Acknowledgements
Many thanks to the growing number of people who have, and continue to, support the project. Also our thanks to all people providing feedback and bug reports that helps us make Trac better, easier to use and more effective.
Without your invaluable help, Trac would not evolve. Thank you all.
Finally, we offer hope that Trac will prove itself useful to like-minded programmers around the world, and that this release will prove an improvement over the last version.
Please let us know. :-)
