On the subject of Zikula --

As another option, Publican 2.0 (due soon) has a web publishing 
component built into it. This might prove easy and practical for d.fp.o; 
I'm just not sure what infra changes we would need to make it fly (but 
it does away with the CVS madness...)

At the moment, the only thing I can point us to externally is Jeff's own 
fedorapeople page: http://jfearn.fedorapeople.org -- note the Publican 
User Guide in the left-hand pane.

Unfortunately, Jeff's page only hosts a single doc in a single language 
so far, so it doesn't really show the tech to its full advantage, but 
you should get the general idea. Note that the javascript menu degrades 
gracefully to plain text if needed -- which avoids our current "duct 
taped" menu board that has attracted some criticism.

There's a fuller description of the component in Jeff's post to 
publican-list here: 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/publican-list/2010-March/msg00021.html

and on the front page of Jeff's fedorapeople page, linked above 
("Creating a Publican WebSite")

I hope to use this tech on my own fedorapeople page when I start putting 
up test builds of the Install Guide and other docs in the coming weeks.

Cheers
