The Multi-Project support in Trac 1.1.x is the same as what existed in
prior versions of Trac. It is the Multiple-Project, Multiple-Environment
strategy.

Bloodhound has Multiple-Project, Single-Environment support. Trac will
hopefully provide support for multiple projects in a single environment in
the future, but it isn't actively being worked on, and we haven't discussed
whether some or all of what has been introduced in Bloodhound would be
backported.

I have tried backporting some small changes from Bloodhound to Trac, and
hope to soon embark on backporting some bigger features in 1.1.x:

Olemis has backported some features, but the Trac devs still need to review
and discuss the changes:

I understand and I think the projects should be more closely integrated. At
least, that is an aim of mine. I would like to see BloodhoundSearchApi,
BloodhoundRelations and MultiProject support backported to Trac. Among
other things, doing so will make maintaining Bloodhound easier and
Bloodhound can then focus on providing features that go beyond Trac's aim
of providing a "minimalistic approach to web-based software project
management."

I believe that Bloodhound will always be based on Trac (it will not
permanently fork from the codebase), and we will aim to integrate changes
from the latest releases as soon as they are available. Trac 1.0.2 should
be available soon, based on the recent discussions on the TracDev mailing
list.
