The http://trac.osgeo.org page redirects to https://trac.osgeo.org
which serves a static page.

My hypotesis was that your IP got cought by fail2ban, which would result
in a 10 minutes ban (if found failing more than an authentication) or in
a 15 minutes ban (if found to be making more than 30 requests in one
minute). If this is the case, the TCP packets would be dropped so you
would never get a response within the ban timeframe.

I could dig more if you gave me the IP you are coming from.
