Mmm.

I've been lurking on these lists and I wonder about this:

has a small overview been made what _exactly_ you want to do with the
site and what features it should have?

Only from that point can you even start to work towards an
implementation.

Right now for tendra.org (not visible, should be later on today) I
started with bare HTML and am moving it to XML/XSLT and XHTML.  This
allows me to write skeleton files for the layout and have simple XML
files where people can record entries and have the XML/XSLT stuff take
care of updating the webpages by means of makefiles.  Of course, it is
pretty simple, but suitable for what I need.

Now, if you guys say, we have X number of diehard HTML/SGML/XML and so
on experts and that's way too low for our community to administer the
website, yeah, then I can understand why you want to go the CMS way.

Are you guys looking at a system that allows people, kind of like how a
weblog does it, to submit texts, have other people (website
maintainers/moderators) approve them and have the underlying system take
care of it, be it versioned or not?
