Regarding my plans to replace Trac and phpBB with something Cobra-based, I see this all the time with various languages. Their sites often run their own software written in the given language for all the obvious reasons (test driving the language, providing another sample code base, control over the site, etc.). There is nothing abnormal about that approach. If you've really been looking at other languages, you've already seen this phenomena.
Regarding docs, if you want to start Cobra docs with the approach and format you prefer, go for it. It could end up being the formal book and the wiki could be used for less formal things that don't go in the book.
Also, if you're not going to use Cobra because you don't like Trac, then you wouldn't have used Cobra anyway. You would have run into another thing that you didn't like and that would have been your ejection button.
But let's say I'm wrong and the only thing standing between you and Cobra is Trac. Suppose we move to bitbucket which appears to be your preference. You know what happens next, right? Someone else comes along and says they won't use Cobra because it's not on github. And so on.
