If you have any interest in testing it without having to find a server host
available and having to install it yourself (it's not as easy as they said,
even TRAC is simpler...), I can create accounts to my "private" installation
(on a publicly available server) that is mostly setup to experiment and
compare with TRAC (so you can play with it without bothering about side
effects on other projects inside it).

Just tell me (and others too) if you want an access to play with it. I'm
wishing to help improve boost any way I can. :)
