Yeah, but MediaWiki isn't really a core website. More an information
gathering environment.

I'm thinking along the lines of full, browsable website, with core sections
like:
About, Features, Screenshots, news, Licence, Download links, Documentation,
Forums, View cvs, Wiki, FAQ/Howto, Bugzilla, Mailing lists, Status,
Resources.

Something along the lines of www.gentoo.org, or www.winehq.com

Yes, we could write our own design from scratch, or we could use pre-built
CMS like some of the below, which I listed last year sometime in the mailing
list:

<snip>
 WebGUI - http://www.plainblack.com/webgui
 Appears to be very popular and was recommended by quite a few people.
 Performance is very good as are the features it offers
 Quick overview available here
 http://www.cmsmatrix.org/matrix?wid=2&func=viewDetail&listingId=1001
 
 Mambo - http://mamboserver.com/
 Recommended by many people to me, and has glowing reports from all the
sites
 I visited. Certainly my favourite.
 Quick overview available here
 http://www.cmsmatrix.org/matrix?wid=2&func=viewDetail&listingId=1074
 
 Confluence - http://www.atlassian.com/software/confluence/  
 This was recommended to me by a friend. I am going only off his
 recommendation.
 I've looked at other websites that use it and it appears to be good,
 although I don't have any performance statistics.
 
 OpenCMS - http://www.opencms.org/opencms/en/
 This was also recommended, but I wasn't overly impressed by it.
 
 OpenSourceCMS - http://www.opensourcecms.com/
 
 Overviews and statistics of many CMS' can be found here -
