Vinicius has been working on porting projects.gnome.org to Wordpress [1]. There was a thread about this recently on the web list [2]. I think that we should be working towards a situation where each project can have two pages - one for end users and one for contributors. It looks to me like projects.gnome.org is turning into the former. It would make sense to use live.gnome.org for the latter.
