The trick is to work with the Apache CMS.  We already have a system
where source files (like MDText and HTML) are converted into HTML
which we then review and publish.  That's how our templating works.
The glue is Perl.  And I bet Python is used behind the scenes for the
MDText conversion.

This is not interactive on a per-request basis.  But if we can think
of this as a data-driven problem where we have an XML (or CSV or some
other structured data file) that we want to convert into some web
content like JSON or HTML, and have the web content automatically
regenerated whenever the underlying data file changes, then we might
consider the CMS as part of the solution.

This could work well for our update notification scripts as well.
These should also probably be data drive.  And I bet they would use
some of the same data that is needed for the download pages.

Wouldn't it be cool to update an XML file describing our release files
and then have it automatically generate the download page logic as
well as the update notification XML's?
