Yeah, that's news to me too.  We on Docs team definitely need it, we
just don't have anyone in our subproject who can make it do the things
we want.  A glance at the archives will show up several instances where
I asked for help with this, but I'm sure it's not as high a priority as
other things like the buildsystem.  I even tried to get some personnel
resources from outside the Red Hat walls -- a contributor who I met at
the Summit who said he had a person with the requisite skills.  No word
back, so I suppose I should try him again.

It's one thing to simply install a CMS and put it on a web server.  We
have lots of people who can do that.  It's quite another to actually USE
one effectively to build a workflow and deploy the tools contributors
need.
