"Multiple Trac instances" (in the sense of 
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracDev/Proposals/MultipleProject) means to have 
several independent Trac installations, each one with its own trac.db and 
representing one project, and you also have a master frontend that handles them 
all in a multiple-project web-interface. This approach is harder to implement 
than to introduce a new "project" dimension in a single Trac instance, which is 
a system with only one trac.db file.

This is called SingleEnvironment (see 
http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracMultipleProjects/SingleEnvironment).

Maybe it's a good idea to create a wiki page on trac.edgewall.org that 
explains/lists the feature differences between all those multiple-project 
solutions in one table or survey, respectively. This is what the Trac user 
actually wants on his search for what to decide. From time to time I also read 
user postings where they even haven't understood the difference between Trac 
installations/instances, user projects and source repositories. That's why it 
makes it even harder to understand it for Trac newbies if there are several 
approaches or solution for how to deal with user projects.
