I agree I think we can find a good theme or have one designed that would work 
nice with WordPress, the benefit of WordPress is the availability of hundreds 
of plugins out there. One being PressBackup that has saved our site once :) The 
good thing about WordPress on Openshift is the tools that we have to manage it 
and GIT. 

Also I have accepted a position at Red Hat as a Frontline Global Support 
working with Openshift/Cloud so if something really breaks we have a member of 
the Marketing team on the Support team :)

This seems really similar to Pelican (granted, I just spent a little 
time looking over their getting started page - so I could be wrong), 
which I use for my blog [1]. A static site with disqus for comments 
would be easy enough to manage. 

Still though, at it's heart we'd still have to come up with a theme 
that does everything we need. So I don't know that it would put us any 
further ahead if we switched tools.
