If no one else will (I'm lazy :P), I can set up a Django environment on my server and tie it in with a bzr repository on Launchpad. (hg has support for INI-based hooks, but bzr's are crippled, code-bound things... checked with #launchpad and email-based updates is the best which could be done at the moment).
I think that a repository-based system would be more suitable than a database-backed system (for the reasons I stated earlier), but we can play with that later. Also considering that most of the pages will be static... bzr and Your Favourite Text Editor (viz, vim) is friendlier than a web interface for these sorts of things. Rather like the current content/code is all in SVN. Except with the content and code separated properly this time.
