Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I didn't realize there were so
many CMF/CMS out there!
I'm not actually looking for anything complicated: just something that
avoids having to copy-and-paste slabs of HTML every time we make a
change to the site layout. Of course, as soon as you start separating
the stuff that changes from the boilerplate stuff, you'll want to be
able to preview the page before uploading it, and then it just snowballs
from there. It's a shame that there isn't a less processor-intensive
solution, but I guess you really have to have a full-featured system if
you want a non-programmer to be able to update the content easily.

I agree, and I'm big on standards compliance too.

In 1985, researchers had FDA approval to test anti-AIDS drug AZT
on humans, but not to test absorption of an oral pill. Because a
pill was much more practical than injections, the scientists bent
the rules and performed absorption tests -- on themselves.
