The nice thing about these projects is that their websites are running
on the product (ie everything on the project website is the wiki managed
by Trac).  So, as you see by looking at the wiki
(http://www.cvstrac.org/cvstrac/wiki) you can use it for whatever you
want.  They are using their wiki for 'end-user' documentation.  So I
guess the answer to your question is no ;-)
