And so we are back at discussions of september 2008.
See http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/kde.org/Meetings/September08

For a dev svn is easy to use, but for people who are only interested in 
managing content it is not suitable. IMHO we need to start using cms and we 
need to go away from svn/php/Capacity.

kde-www receives a lot of patches and hints about outdated content. Everytime 
you have to search svn for the location of pages, make changes check result 
locally and then submit them. It is a waste of manpower in my eyes.

I made my first steps using mediawiki/Joomla/Drupal/Wordpress and Typo3 
(reading book) within the last year and would offer my help to administrate 
kde sms sites.

Cheers, 
Mark
