[Python-apps-team] Removing Trac from wheezy? (was: moving trac packaging to git, and preparing trac 1.0.1 for experimental)

As a consequence, trac 0.12.5-1, the latest and only LTS version
from upstream, will not be in the archive anymore. Wheezy has,
unfortunately, 0.12.3-1. Using 0.12.3 will not be attractive for
users of wheezy, if a 1.0.x backport exists. I therefore suggest
to remove trac and its plugins from wheezy.

The only drawback is, that during the time until jessie, new
major versions of trac (1.2, 2.0, ...) might hit backports.
Which means, that users cannot assume any stability for a
predictable time.

Any comments?
