I just don't have tons of time to update the website, and the
current stuff I have to jump through a bunch of hoops to update.
I basically had to gut out the administration files from phpnuke
for security reasons, so whenever I want to update things, I have
to log in and restore things, make my changes, then re-secure the
website. It bites, really.
I think the mythtv.info wiki move to mythtv.org should be finished
sometime this year. Maybe. =)
Have you thought about just making the whole thing a wiki?
Mediawiki can lock pages to administrators and it is easy enough to
do what you're looking for with the wiki software. I think most
CMS are cumbersome but if you're going to have the wiki anyways.
On a side note, I really would like to contribute more to the
documentation/wiki but it begs for a more official structure as a
guideline to start and I'm afraid that just moving the .info stuff
to .org lacks the adequate skeleton to make the information flow
properly and be more useful to people. Since it started on the
side, it developed a somewhat halting flow for the information
organization...
If you're just looking to have a news section and a few web pages,
perhaps something as simple as phpwebsite?
http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu/
I recommend it to moderately computer skilled family members for
something easier to maintain than a nuke-style site. It doesn't
really lend itself to a community maintained site, but it works for
centrally controlled content.
