I'm all for this idea.

Whatever design we end up, I think now it's right time to propose we implement it using some web-editable CMS. 

From my experience with it, Wordpress would probably suit us well and would allow a trusted set of people to edit the website. (And being able to contribute a stream of news and articles is only a bonus.)

I'm not sure a wiki would be able to masquerade as a website, but it would certainly complement it.

Maybe you could create a PoC webpage somewhere, to better show
off what you have in mind and discussed with Greg?
Also why your design then ended up as is, some background information
would be nice ;)

Then I think it will be easier to take the best ideas from both designs, and
combine the work.

For me this sounds than much more work than doing a radical change.
Now you are going to touch every page, restructuring, then you go
touch the pages again, applying the nits needed for the new CSS and
style to work?

To everyone else, thanks for the feedback so far. I'll collect it, and
send a summary, I think latest on the weekend.

cheers,
Sebastian
