I tried to do that with the e.org/dev/ folder. Programming-wise is completely 
different, I wouldn't use everything. There is quite a few useful and isolated 
code. It was richer in earlier revisions design and content wise than the 
latest.

But website development, design, content writing and editing (along with wiki 
and forum content writing and administration) is a never-ending,  annoying, 
thankless, glory-less job at an open source project, which is why...

Is an excellent idea. I would love to participate in such team provided that 
the workload consists of small, specific tasks. I already burnt myself with my 
long term planning.

I don't think using a large framework/CMS for the brochure pages is necessary 
or a good idea. The brochures were meant to be small static pages with little 
dynamic content which is simply aggregated from services like exchange, planet-
e or trac. The defunct dev folder has some useful code for that which can be 
reused. Some of it is already in the current site.

The real problem is time, the final release is right around the corner and I 
think polishing the current website (content, html, css) will get us much 
further. The current site was never what I had in mind as the end product, 
specially aesthetically.

But to be honest I think the wiki (organization and content) is much more 
important, even the old wiki is better organized and looking than the current 
one. I don't non-admins can even create pages currently.
