+1 to stand clear of XXXml ;)
I can't imagine that more people know YAML than basic XML. I know I've avoided YAML so far, since it seems pretty pointless to me. I don't think POD or a wiki would provide enough structure for this use (we need a headline, body, date, poster, etc.), although I suppose we could make POD work by requiring a strict structure for news items.
One way to do it would be to simply write into a large RSS file by hand, and let a script grab the last 10 of those for the real RSS feed and for generating the pages.
Yuck. The front-end doesn't have to be anything format specific. Just have a simple form for content management. I really liked the Bricolage presentation at OSCon, it's so easy to create and manipulate data.
Can you please take a look at how jobs.perl.org works. I'm not sure what they are using behind the scenes, but it seems to work great.
