Like the link he provided on multiple projects or the suggestion to use 
mod_python?

Or like the code I provided for the left-hand menu?

Trac may not be ready for you, because it has no "automatic" facility 
for a left-hand menu and the docs are written for a slightly skilled 
admin.

Kiss may require a bit of dirty hands on your part.  Trac is well worth 
it, and you may even learn something about server admin.
