[Cython] code review

The canonical example of a project that uses trac is Sage:
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac
It has good email integration (notify on ticket modification, etc,
although it is supposed to be even better in the next version).
Normally we attach patches to a ticket and then just comment them in
the ticket associated with the patch.  This associates the bug/feature
ticket with the patch (as opposed to needing two systems if you went
with something like codeview + launchpad).  Compared to trac,
launchpad is slow for webpage response time.  It is also slow on
ticket creation time (I can create a ticket for a given item in maybe
30 seconds on one page in trac, whereas launchpad has so much
complexity it is significantly more time consuming, requires a
multipage creation step, etc).
