As you know, what we have on the website today, at least for the
static content (non-wiki) sections is a mashup of HTML/MDTEXT with CSS
and header/footer/nav provided by the CMS template.   So the basic
page looks something like this:

http://www.openoffice.org/style-test.html

My guess is we'll want to play with all three layers here, and do so
in a way that does not interfere with the existing website.  So we
might want to ask Infra for a separate CMS target to play with, that
can have its own templates, etc.,   We could, for example, have a
/site-test in SVN that maps to an www-test.openoffice.org, or
something like that.

I gave some input on the larger topic here:

My main complaints were around visual consistency and the difficulty
of maintaining native language websites.
