One of my teammates said that he had at one point used Mylyn backed by Subversion as a task repository. I believe this was several versions of Mylyn ago, and I have not found any documentation about setting something like this up in any of my searching. Is this still a supported configuration and if so can you please let me know where I can download the appropriate connector.
If this isn't supported any longer do you have any recommendations for a lightweight task repository that is both free and easy to install and configure? Right now it's looking like Trac backed by Sqlite is the best option.
