Our "whole website" currently constitutes

  - one handwritten, largely static page, the front page;
  - the wiki; and
  - the BTS.

I think that we're mostly happy with roundup as the BTS and (will be)
happy with gitit as the wiki, which means that Drupal would only be in
charge of managing the front page page.  I'm against adding the
complexity of a CMS in order to achieve subjective goals such as making
those pages "look nicer" and be "easier to navigate".
