Greetings,
I've discussed this with a few of you briefly previously,
but I've let time run short, and need to get things settled
quickly. In brief, we are looking for the support of
LinuxChix and/or Debian-Women as we put together a funded
program to attract and support women computer scientists

I'm hardly a guru, but as somebody who has run or helped to
run a lot of Wikis and other web frontpages
(e.g. http://nickle.org) for a long time, including a fairly
comprehensive mostly-scratch-built Wiki farm
(http://wiki.cs.pdx.edu), here's a few thoughts. Take them
for what they're worth. :-)
As I said earlier, you may want to think hard about Wikis vs
Content Management Systems as the primary venue. You could
still have a scratchpad Wiki, but let the CMS handle a lot
of the hard details of presentation, interaction, etc. I'm
liking Drupal, overall, for this kind of activity. See

Drupal claims full Unicode support. To be honest, though, I haven't
yet had occasion to use it in my stuff...

Please do! I'll be real curious to hear
You also have to love a professional writer that produced a
dizzying opening 1-sentence paragraph like this: "Open
source advocates have turned their minds to tackling another
problem with proprietary software development: women."
Ouch.

You might want to use HTML Tidy.
http://tidy.sourceforge.net/
Automates most of the stuff, once you figure out how to use
it.

Apparently Karoshi is a network management system for
schools that runs on the Linux operating system. It looks
pretty nice!

My strong default preference at this point is for git. It
works well, supports all the necessary features plus some
extras, and is IMHO poised to be the default SCMS of choice
for a number of open source projects (besides kernel.org and
x.org). The cogito interface, which is rapidly improving,
