OTOH, how many more different systems should there be? We have one for www.gimp.org, one for developer.gimp.org, a wiki (two, if you count gui.gimp.org).

Do we need to add another one? Should more than one of the above be replaced by the new system? Does a CMS have advantages or disadvantages in comparison to a wiki?


BTW, contributions to the site content can be done without installing Apache or Python locally. BTDT.
