Track time using the mite web service

Description

Mite logo

This plugin connects Trac with mite, a web-based time tracking tool. Track your time easily on issues within Trac and get them automatically sent to your mite.account. The time entries are sent via https to the central mite server, where they are then stored.

To track time, once the connection to your mite.account is verified, you should have the possibility to assign one of your mite.projects and mite.services to every new and existing time entry. When saving the time entry, Trac2mite will send this data to your mite.account.
