If I'm not mistaken, mediawiki and many CMSs require a database
which our server doesn't necessarily have, and if it does would
probably require some setup (create the database and database
user...) that we probably can't do. So I wouldn't say this is
painless. I think Bill has already made some parts of updating
the site automatic so maybe he could just write up how it works
and certain other people would have ssh access as mentioned?
