Again, not if we go with Bricolage ... the big 'issue' with Bricolage, if
I recall the last time we looked at it, was that there was a slight
learning curve for the original templates ... but, if Gevik is as
enthuiastic about it, its something that he culd learn how to do the
initial setup and then 'pass on the knowledge' to others over time ...

As for 'seperate site and servers' ... not required, since Bricolage will
'publish' static HTML pages to the existing web site, which also means
that it will be able to make use of the existing infrastructure ..
