Ouch. The website is also in Subversion, I didn't know that.
It looks like these are static pages that are glued together with some
html parsing script each time there is an update to the site. Is that
correct?
That's something completely different from a database-driven content
management system...

But what about the Spambayes wiki on http://www.entrian.com/sbwiki?
As far as I can tell, that one isn't in Subversion.
I think, whoever made that wiki several years ago did a great job with the
technology that was available at the time. But I think that now the
project website and the wiki can benefit a better integration.

Sourceforge, check, that's not a problem. Just look at
http://pysearch.sourceforge.net/
That is a project website in Drupal, hosted on SourceForge, and the
project happens to be software written in Python, just like Spambayes.

Oh whatever, I just need a project.
I can make something for myself, and then you can still decide if you want
to use it or not. If you're not going to use it, at least I had a bit of
fun&experience in website building.
