okay, a quick scan of docs shows that:

* a single trac install can work for multiple subprojects (Documentation 
says: Only one installation is required, then for each project create an 
Environment (using trac-admin <fooproj> initenv). They will be separate 
projects, all handled by the same installation of Trac.)

* but sharing information between subprojects is not yet supported. 
(Documentation says: Note: Right now there is no support for sharing 
information between projects.)

They have plans to make this work better post Trac 1.0:

Their trac roadmap (indicated in Trac :) makes this look a while off 
yet, though..
